This is a great project! It took me awhile to get everything set correctly once back together, but it was all worth it in the end. I wish you great success in this process.

Yeah, was wondering if I was going to need a lift or hoist, or at the very least a 2nd person, to get the motor out but it wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. Don't get me wrong, it was a heavy lift, but not totally impossible. That being said, I have a friend coming over this weekend to help put it back
And I debated doing some steering work but with winter fast approaching and space soon to be a premium, I decided against it. It's not too bad as is, but will need some work in the future.
