Re: [T3] AT & engine re-install

<x-flowed>Martin and I have seen this used and it does work well. It was when we helped the previous owner of my yellow VW a year or two ago :-)

I've removed/installed my engine and tranny together using a small floor jack. A little more balancing required but quite doable.

Just to butt in here....
Sears has a motorcycle jack(1200lb cap.) that works perfectly!.Nice,wide stance with
rubber pads that fit the oil sump as if made for it. It comes with straps that tighten,good swivel
wheels and a bottle jack to lift.
