Need writeup on pulling motor from the bottom! Can I without strut tower bar?
I need to pull my T/A's motor out from under neath. I know there was a writeup, but I cant find it. Also, is there a way to do it without a strut bar? I cant see how that works anyway since the bolts for the shocks would have to be off for the kmember to fall. Maybe they dont bolt up there, but I thought they did.
Any other advice would be great, I am going to tackle it this weekend (going to rent a chery picker).

I don't have a STB brace either. I just used a chain and bolted it to each shock tower and lifted. You don't have to really worry about body flex as there isn't any real weight left in the car after you pull the drivetrain and k-member out.
