[urq] Engine removal

[Martin Pajak]

L-A,

Well... you can waste 6 months trying to do it the way Bentley tells you,
or just undo the subframe, drop the engine/tranny to the floor and simply
drag it from undearneath. BTDT about 10 times.. :)
You can lower the assembly with a 2 Ton jack and then use it to drag the
whole thing out from undearneath.

BTW you do not need to remove the bumper or the valance... BTDT without
removing those as well.

Hope this helps.
