Question  30-01-2013, 01:00 AM (This post was last modified: 30-01-2013, 01:00 AM by Ollie.)
This isn't a thread looking for advice just wondering what way everyone else goes about it?

I always take them out the bottom subframe and all. Although we do have a few forklifts in the yard so it's a lot handier with them. One forklift holding the car up then the other supporting the engine as I lift the car off it.

Going in the top just seems a bit tight and awkward to me even though I've never done it. A Sierra is the only other thing I've had an engine out of and I took it out the bottom as well.

Just interesting to see.
