I see in one of the Tech articles you can pull the engine and leave the transmission in the car! I'm right at that spot now.

1. If I pull the transmission with the engine do I just remove the two outer transmission bolts, the ones that look like the engine mounts. Or can you remove the four bolts that connect the transmission to that crossmember?

2.If I pull the engine only, how much of a problem is it during installation to align the engine and transmission together? I'm concerned with the alignment of the the clutch, pilot bearing, etc while balancing the engine on my jack, I'm using a motorcycle jack.

3. If I pull the engine and then go back to get the transmission it would be easier but again how much of that rear crossmember comes out with the transmission.

Awaiting a reply, Thanks everyone.
