Guest a_danner Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 can this be done without transmission being pulled also would like to leave it under the car? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyAus Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 No. The transmission has to be moved to the rear to get the clutch off the flywheel pins. There is no room to move the engine forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loose nut Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 No. The transmission has to be moved to the rear to get the clutch off the flywheel pins. There is no room to move the engine forward. I was wondering if you took the front cover ...covers timing chain if you could pull motor on 26 dodge 4 cly as that would give you more room to come forward..
