My shop that I've been cleaning out, prepping, painting and outfitting for the past little bit
PC100017.jpg?t=1229889216
New 4 post lift!
Shop_14.jpg?t=1229889876
Pops helping assemble lift
PC100027.jpg?t=1229889220
Almost assembled
PC100038.jpg?t=1229889227

Well I finally got the lift fully assembled last weekend
And took a final shot of the car before I started taking some parts out
2/18/09
Well I started on my engine pull last night cause my motor sold and I bought my new one, so some progress finally! I started around 530pm, pops left around 930-1000pm (we had the driveline/stuff underneath done and the airbox/y-pipe stuff done.) Then I took my time and got stuck at the end trying to figure out how to get the freaking AC compressor out[headbang][evilmad] I was there til after 4am tinkering with it, though I should've left earlier because I wasn't very productive by that time. Anywho, onto the pictures.
Onto the motor pull.
Before she was touched (except for the headlights that I sold a while back.)
Where we but the zip-lock bagged bolts
We had to lift the car with some 2x4's on the DTS because of the way the jack was.
Pulling the half-shafts, cat-back exhaust and driveline
Passenger's shaft out
Driver's shaft out
Apparently I had a horribly torn boot since the last time I checked a month or two ago
Catback off (I have a new found love for v-band clamps!) Taking off Driveline heatshield
Disconnecting the driveline
Pile o' parts so far
From here on I was on my own.
Front bumper and fogs off. My RS4 bumper was held on differently than the stock ones from the writeup (other than the two main bumper support bolts of course.)
IC shrouds and pusher fan off. Draining the coolant (I caught most of the initial drain from the radiator, but when moving the whole radiator/front clip and when unplugging other hoses around the motor I got coolant everywere, over and again!)
