Message: [QUOTE="stroker_1999, post: 1538045, member: 18140"] I know this is a older thread but figured I'd post on how I pull the engine cab on.I take the core support out radiator and intercooler out the rest of the front clip can stay on.I remove the turbo and uppipes and the windshield cowl on driver side to access the degas bottle bracket it's 3 bolts to remove it.I take the fan clutch and fan stator off the intake and oil/filter housing stays I remove the ficm and 2 ficm brackets I remove the power steering pump and a/c compressor .I made a lifting device that allows minamal moment of the engine and allows the engine to come past cross member and clear firewall cowling.I used a solid steel bar I got it from a metal supply place I drilled 3 holes in it I use 2 clevis ends that hook onto the engine lifting brackets.I then used a small short piece of chain that attaches to the lifting bar I made in the center.When the motor is raised it will not twist around nor slam into stuff when you go to pull it out and you don't have to take the whole front of the truck apart.I also slide the transmission back makes it way easier to set the motor back in because lining those torque converter studs up to the flex plate can be a royal pain in the a$$.
