motor pull on a 98 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

dammitmitchell · 07-11-2010, 07:24 PM

hey gents gotta pull and replace the motor on my 98 blazer.

question of the day is
pull motor tranny out as a whole?
pull motor seperate from tranny?

do i need to pull the radiatior support to get this little bugger out?

thanks!

any heads up is appreciated. I feel i need the hands of an oriental woman to work on this thing.

leave the tranny and rad. support.
this is pretty straight forward aside from the 2 upper bolts on the driver's side of bell housing. I have found it easier to remove the steering intermediate shaft and lift body 2 or 3 inches.
another thing that makes it easier is to remove engine wiring harness from under the fuse block and lay it all over the pass. fender.

why the motor pull?

I have found it easier to pull the trans with the engine on 2 wheel drive trucks atleast. The body can be left alone
