    Lowering the jack after unbolting the cross member while still attached to the engine doesn’t cause any problems, I would think it would put the front end in a bind

    • @3rdGenGuy

      Long extensions mostly.
      i Usually don't list the tools because often times these videos take 2-3 weeks at a time.
      I would recommend a cheap transmission jack though.

    At 1:21 you unplugged a wiring harness from above the transmission. I have that same harness on my Camaro, but it's just hanging there in mid air, not connected to anything. Can you tell me what that harness is for? Thanks

    i just removed the engine and tranny from my 3rd gen, after removing the torque arm from the tranny side i left it still attached at the rear end. it is ok to roll the car in and out of the garage with the torque arm like that? i used ur vid as a guide btw so thank you!

      if you push it around it's fine.

    • @briannewton4803
      @briannewton4803 2 года назад

      Hey Drakoz, you might have rear valve covers or rear main seal, rear cam plugs leaking. If you have an older Camaro you will need to pull the trans just to get a good look at what is leaking. I paid a shop to tell me what it was leaking but they said I needed to pull the Transmission and see, I am currently doing this on my 1994 Camaro. It's not so bad if you can afford the correct jacks and tools. Good luck man.

      no you dont,I just had to unbolt it,take out drive shaft and crossmember then lower it enough to slide it back for clearance. This is kind of what I was referring to,if I could get away with just lowring it without having to pull whole thing,answr was yes,did it lst summer been fine since.

    • @3rdGenGuy
      @3rdGenGuy  2 года назад

      under the subframe connectors if you have them.
      if not, the boxed frames.
      if you are unsure, google "3rd gen jacking points" there's a few pics online of where to jack from.
      DO NOT jack from the pinch welds.

      it's recommended you use a block or something to keep the engine from tipping back. it can possibly crack a distributor cap if it leans against the firewall too hard.

      Just use a cheap jack with rollers on it, with a flat but thick piece of wood under the oil pan. This way in case you need to adjust the height of engine when reinstalling the trans, it’s easy. Good luck…

    • @3rdGenGuy
      @3rdGenGuy  Год назад +1

      on 700r4, the bellhousing is fixed.
      if the bolts are just tight, sometimes long sockets can twist a lot so things like impacts don't work
      I feel like my extensions twisted like 1/2 a turn before the bolts even started to budge.
