jack the car up and take the wheels off. remove the axle nut (shiny gold thing on the end of the axle sticking out of the hub. take off the lower ball joints and tie rod nuts. take off the horseshoe looking thing that your struts go into. using an axle puller, pry the axle out of the intermediate shaft (drivers side) or tranny (passenger side). do not just pull, you will separate the joint. at this point, start removing coolant lines, ac lines, power wires, wiring harnes splugs, really anything that connects your motor to anything. once everything is unplugged, take out one of the transmission bolts below the distributor and put your leveler there and put the bolt back in. then on the drivers side, take off one of the nuts that hold the mount to your motor (not the frame) and put the other side of the leveler there, put the nut back on. put a little pressure on the hoist and then take the bolts out that hold the top two motor mounts to the frame. once those are out, get back under the car and remove 2 19mm bolts that go into a big black t bracket. then take out 1 17mm from the t bracket. the motor should pull out

take off everything connected to it and then pull it out?

Yep, easier to drop it . I've done that and then lifted up the new engine using a regular floor jack. BTW....motorcycle jack works the best

motorcycle jack and a block of wood helps a lot. also, try and drive the car up on ramps or get jacks that can get it high enough to drop it out instead of lifting it out.

ive never dropped it, only pulled out from the top. its pretty easy with a hoist. i couldnt imagine it being easier dropping it down.

make sure to take pics of all the lines or mark them with tape so you know where they go. and just use a hoist its not that hard you can do it by yourself

"dropping" your motor is a whole lot easier and safer for your car if you dont wanna bang up your bay. and also saves you if you dont have a picker

ive dont it both ways. whatever you have the tools for, do it that way. just get it done. it takes some time, but shouldn't be more than 1 day with the tools.
