Before I get too far along with the interior I will probably want to remove the motor.
All the pictures that I've seen of the motor being removed show a cherry picker going through the side doors to pull the motor.
Since there is no cross member under the engine or tranny is it possible to jack the van up some, put it on jack stands and drop the motor out the bottom instead?
Before I pull a motor I remove the carb, intake and heads to make it lighter and give more room to maneuver. In this case I also would pull the tranny also.
Any thoughts about problems dropping the motor down? Anyone with any experience either way, thoughts which would be better / easier?
Thanks...Keith
