Did the engine drop Sunday. Followed the PP article on engine drop, good procedure nice instructions. All went very smooth until we got to the motor mount bolts. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)
The right side bolt (go figure it is right under the battery try) was rusted solid. No amount of heat, grinding, impact wrench or anything moved that SOB. Tried to cut the head off the bolt and it still would not come out. More beating more grinding with more heat and still nothing. Only one choice left...... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blowtorch.gif) Had to cut the motor mount bar. Anybody got a bar that they want to sell????? Hell hole looks relativley decent except around the battery tray which I already knew>> this is why the engine was removed to begin with. Now on to the R&R... And before anyone puts it in... Yes I know. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/thisthreadisworthlesswithoutpics.gif) Camera batteries died on me when I went to upload to the computer. |
