peanut 0 Posted January 20, 2008 In the ptrocess of removing the gearbox on a 95 rado vr. I was under the impression it was possible to do this with the engine in situ and removing the box from underneath. I just cant figure out how. Everything unbolted. driveshafts are unbolted from the gearbox side but i cant seem to get enough movement to drop it out underneath. Front mount is off and ive removed the rear subframe bolts to try and give me a bit more room but its not helped much. Any ideas would be much appreciated Gav Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
12 DEG BEN 0 Posted January 20, 2008 When you say the rear subframe bolts, does the mean you have removed the alloy gearbox mount extension thingy. Wish I had pics. The bit that connects the gearbox to the mount itself. Only 3 long bolts and I also found it advantageous to jack the engine up by several inches to get the diff out from between the engine and subframe. It still is a pig though and worse putting it back in. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
