Ok guys.... You ready? Time to start the swap. I have everything unbolted except for the downpipe bolts but I can still explain the process to pulling it out. These basic steps work for any fwd gm swap.
Step 1. Remove battery and fluids.
Step 2. Disconnect wiring harness at all points to the body.
Step 3. Jack up front end and remove the front tires.
Step 4. Pull calipers,caliper mounting brackets and rotors off.
Step 5. Unbolt hubs and pop out halfshafts from trans and remove assembly.
Step 6. Unbolt exhaust pipe from manifold.
Step 7. Remove plastic dust cover on drivers side covering the trans mount.
Step 8. Unbolt the drivers side trans mount(as shown).
Step 9. Remove plastic dust cover on passangers side
Step 10. Unbolt passanger trans mount(from bottom of k frame easier access)
Step 11. Hook your hoist as shown to the factory assembly crane brackets.
Step 12. Hoist it up and out.
And the engines out.... My next post should be of the install.
