question this saturday my father and i (VW engine installing virgins) are going to install my type3 into that microscopic space in the rear called an engine bay or whatever. now here is what we are going to do and tell me if i am thinking wrong or missing something. 1) lifting the rear with ramps (rolling the square up these ramps and pulling up parking break to prevent roll. 2) lift the front end with jacks and support both sides with jack stands so the car is as level as possible. 3) support the tranny with a jack at the same time (have 2 of them) 4) raise the engine to the tranny install bolt down according to spec and then lower everything. questions : anything i should be wary of with the engine on the jack? how should i get the engine on the jack (it is currently on the floor)? there will be only 2 of us doing this. other than that help me out here. caesar ------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe? mailto:type3-request@vwtype3.org, Subject: unsubscribe
