engine replacement

[Warren]

the beddy is stuck in the garage so i cant get a gantry in there....

i will have to go with the method John Abbot went with but i haven't the money to make trolley.

seems straight forward.... ill work out a cheap option for the lack of trolley.

Do you have a hack saw?

Can you say "lost shopping trolley"?

Hacksaw meet shopping trolly.

Shopping trolly gets a new life as a Bedophiles tool of mass destruction

Bedophiles?

i get dirty enough working on the bedy without you making me feel dirty as well 

you got me thinking though... that big fat cheep skateboard my son never rides  nice smoooooth bearings. ok im scrubbing the 202 for a repaint and reading my new haynes vb rebuild manual.

i bought a 1250k engine crane from super cheap....

it was $360 and very bloody heavy!!!

would have cost me $80+ a day to hire one so bugger it i bought it.

good idae able..

i bought one a few years back..

best thing ever.. lift up the van with it move around engines.. move 44 gallon drums of fibreglass resin with it.. never do without it now..

besides lifting the beddy it will help lift my new 202 onto the engine stand i bought at the same time but we will keep that info from the misses wont we

i would lift it my self but i do not feel like wiping around a hemorrhoid for the next few weeks

G'day

You wimps, get serious and buy a forklift!
I bought a 4.5 ton forklift with sideshift, made a heavy duty set of slippers and I can now pick up the whole van.

after consulting John Abbott im going with the 1.3 meter box steel placed under the chassis where the radiator would be....

i have every thing i need and the 202 is painted up and had its seal kit put through it...

by the way has anyone got a spare bedy work manual for sale? i have a 78 if that matters...

will come in handy for front end repair ect ect....

[able]

i have taken off or put to one side with wiring in tact (less confusing...)

steering, alternator, coil, exhaust, shifter, accelerator cable.... all other hoses and things are neatly sitting on top of the 186 so i can see how im to reattach to the 202.

as far as i can see all i have to remove before i can lift the beddy and roll out the front end is

four bolts for front end, 2 on those bars that are on a 45 degree angle, 2 bolts on the back of the gear box and the clutch cable from the bell housing.

anything im forgetting??? i want to roll it out on the week end...

by the way how does that clutch cable come off? (Holden three speed manual)
