Preparations
Lifting vehicle
Raise the vehicle so that the engine / transmission unit are free beneath the vehicle. Place the engine and transmission on the lifting table. Lower the lifting table to its lowest position.
Lowering the vehicle
Lower the vehicle over the engine/transmission unit ensuring that the unit is aligned between the frame members and that the compressor is free. Stop lowering the vehicle just before the engine / transmission unit are in position. Raise the engine / transmission unit the last bit until the unit is in position to install the engine mountings.
