Engine Carrier

Removing and installing engine carrier on DFI engines





Preliminary work

Caution
Incorrect positioning of transmission jack on oil pan or support surface too small!
Oil pan or oil guide housing can break.

- Use wide, rubber-coated support surface on the transmission jack.
- Choose a solid area on the underside of the engine or on the transmission.

1. Prop up the engine from underneath with a transmission jack (with a wide, rubber-coated support surface) or support the engine on the body.
2. Remove engine guard.
3. Remove front axle far enough for the engine carrier to be removed.
