1974 FJ40 with an 1-and-a-half here. The transmission and transfer case dont need anything, but I am R&Ring the motor. I have almost everything removed and am ready to hoist it out. I saw other threads like this one: Engine Removal (fj40)
where some folks recommend removing everything together. I dont want to disturb the transmission or xfer case if I dont have too. I have an overhead hoist that slides on a U-beam.
Is there any issue with unbolting the engine from the tramsmission (4 bolts right?), the engine mounts and lifting it out while leaving the transmission in situ? Anything else to watch for?
Do you hoist it out on a sling or are there specific lifting points?
Thanks!
