    When you say easiest way, what exactly do you mean? Removing the
    engine is pretty much the same in all cars - you disconnect all
    the coolant hoses, the fuel hoses, the wiring loom, the
    driveshafts, the engine mounts, and you lift it out.

    a: it was not a pointless post
    b: the binary smily was a accident i cut and pasted my orginal message from
    a message board had it had a smiley in it
    i did not think it would capture the smiley image file
    so i apoligize for the accidental binary
    ok how do i remove the inboard cv joints so the engine and tranny come up as
    one unit

    i for one after parting this out am sorta glad i do not have to do regular
    maintenance on this thing lol

    i have done other engine/cars

    Wait Clayton . . . Grunff referred to the *binary* as being pointless, not the
    post as such.

    I didn't say/think it was. I was referring to the smilie gif as
    being poinless.

     

    Ok, no problem.

     

    The inner drivers are 3 roller spider joints - they just pull
    out. All you need to do is undo the wishbone balljoint and
    anti-roll bar (sway bar) to allow the bottom of the wheel to
    swing out a little.

    Don't touch the ball joint. Loosen and remove two bolts on the strut
    and pull the drive shaft.
