was thinking if i dropped the exhaust and subframe,removed the strut nuts from the inner wing removed the top mount radiator,cabels and bits and bobs and then lifted the car up i could wheel the engine,box,shafts,suspension etc out in one lump.
is this possible?
anyone done it?

I think when people do this they leave the engine bolted to the subframe. I reckon that could work!

no this wouldnt work because the engine only has the 1 bottom mount in to the subframe
