    Engine Removal Question

    Hey all,
    I am currently taking on the task of removing my engine from my 02 ws6. Ive got eveything detached and ready to lift the body off of the K member. However, after wrecking my core support member and bending it to s***, im asking if anyone can tell me what to affix the cherry picker too....Quite honestly it all seams sketchy, but Im too far into to it to care at this point.

    Thanks in advance.

    I've seen it done at the part of the frame that the radiator sits on. I've supported the car from that location too. Make sure you have the proper support with the rest of the car so it doesn't shift and bad things happen.

    Good question. I would probably install a plate or something over the suspension towers as they are fairly rugged.
