Messages 1 to 11 of 11.
Remove column plastic and hazard switch unit from both and fit scrapper to mine. Turn car round so rear is raised, remove prop shaft ? help how? cut it off ? then angle grind the drive shafts, followed by unbolting the rear diff or angle grinding it free from chassis.?? what do you recon ? next up remove carb ect from scrapper and mine and fit scrapper to mine, followed by quick tune up. then to remove the car from the ramps and drain all fluids. remove side and rear windows including door mirrors and drivers side handles. These are for spares and need a part to fix my door handle. remove harnesses and front seats to flog on the bay. remove battery to keep as back up. ? someone mayby removing the engine i said £40. put it back on A frame and weight it in. So some questions their, anyone else got any suggestions ?.

I dont think you will get to the prop bolts with a angle grinder, easier to put car on axle stands then undo bolts the normal way, you can just turn the prop round to get to them than havin to keep jackin car up to turn the prop. Depending how rusted the exhaust is undo the middle clamp and try moving them in the sleeve and separating, slicing the exhaust in half makes its useless really. Why not just leave the half shafts intact and just drop the diff. What flog the engine on ebay? Ya could do, though if you can make a video of it running before its removal, then if any one is interested you can send them the video to show its a good runner. Nige

I meant angle grind from inside car, to drop the rear diff. Thanks for saying I need to undo prop bolts. didnt have a clue. A woman sending her machanic to remove engine but only if we tie up on same day. If He takes it ill be abot £25 better of than haveing engine in it at weigh in. with exhaust was going to cut it just before mid section,on down pipe. I dont like working up side down with spanners lol. need a car tilter I did debate removeing fluids and windows then rolling on its side or roof to remove under side parts. Would certainly get peoples attention in the street I think though although would make a great u tube video.

Dont think you can drop the rear axle from insde the car, yeah you can grind off the shock nuts but then you will have to get underneath to grind off the bolts holdin the axle up i think. Nige
