I am parting out an early 67. It is far too far gone. Is the only way to get the transmission out to take it up and out the engine compartment connected to the engine? Need some kind of lift to do this? Mark

That is the preferred method of removing the transmission. You should use a lift - they are heavy little suckers...

That is the easiest way. Rent an engine hoist and a leveler to pull the engine and tranny as a unit. If you do not drain the tranny fluid stick a paint can cap over the tail housing to keep from getting tranny fluid all over the ground.

If your out in the country suburbs like me and have a freind with a forklift - use that.

Smooth and fast.

The forklift had to be an H20 Nissan right? Forklift heh! Well, that is better than a tree and a come along any day.
