thanks for posting this. I had been kicking around the idea of pulling my engine and replacing con rod bearings as they hadn't been done yet and, well, I'm sure you know the rest. So, today I basically got the car to the point of pulling out the engine crane; drive shaft out, exhaust out, front rad/coolers/condenser, and so forth. My plan was to tilt the engine/trans noise up/tail down to hopefully clearance the oil pan from the steering rack and subframe....but i noticed you had to lower those as well. Were you concerned that you wouldn't have enough clearance without moving them? I'd just like to save myself some time and not have the engine on the crane while working under the car to get the clearance i need. Thanks for the advice.
