POLL: Engine removal with or without tranny

[KingKong]

I was wondering what everyone thinks is easier on a 240, removing the engine with or without the tranny?

I hate pouring in the gear oil so I was thinking of trying to pull the engine without pulling the tranny

Thanks

I just helped joel with his swap once, and it was cake!
And i've change my tranny couple times and is a pain in the @ss
so I'll say take the whole thing

i don't think i know anyone who swaps engines without the tranny is s-chassis.

whats the big deal, fill it through the shifter hole.

eat a sandwich while you are waiting.

with tranny...

but i don't know what the big deal is about filling the tranny. get a hand pump and spray it in. stand on a chair with a funnel and a plastic tube. fill it through the shifter. etc.

Yeah well either way, if you take the Dshaft out and start pulling the motor out with the tranny your going to get gear oil coming out the tail shaft because there's nothing to hold the seal in tight.

Get over it.
Just pour it in the shifter.
Not a big deal.

P.s. drain it first.
I found out that way. lol :-)

Yea I figured itd be easier with the tranny on I just hate that gear oil

[Itsbrokeagain]

drain the effin gear oil and call it a day. wear some ****ty clothes that you dont mind throwing out afterwards if you spill it on them, because gear oil will never come out lol.

its true. Arthur smells like gear oil for the last 4 years, and he swears he doesn't... but anyone else can smell it. lol. Him and his car smell like red line gear oil.

the smell of gear oil makes me wanna vomit. spilled it around the shifter when i was pouring it in and i had the smell in my car for weeks. somebody tried telling me "thats just how jdm motors smell" haha.

I agree, have arthur come and help you, he loves laying in a nice puddle of gear oil. He helped me swap my tranny and had that crap on like it was friggin shampoo!
