Vr6 gearbox removal

Recommended Posts

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

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.
