Removal of Motor,Tcase, Trans in one shot????

Hey guys I just got an replacement Motor Tcase and trans out of a totaled 03 with 3500 mile! Im wondering if I can drop the subframe and pull everything out one shot. Ive looked all over for info but can only find how to remove one at a time. A plain and simple yes or no would help but a link would be even better! PS If anyone is looking for a long block, trans or tcase all with 48k on them....PM me

Regards,

Jason

Pop the TCase off and drop the motor and trans together.

So still drop the subframe, but remove the T-case first?

no, if you remove the t-case you do NOT have to remove the subframe

If you drop the TCase out the bottom then the Motor and Trans will come out the top together. Or as Mike stated They can all be dropped out the bottom by removing the subframe

Correct. Pull out the tcase, then have the engine hoist drop the motor on the floor and raise the car off of the engine on the lift.

so now the question is, is it easier to drop the subframe or not? i dont have a frame contact lift, all i have is a drive on and i dont think its wide enough to drop the motor/trans out the bottom. if i remove the tcase(which i thought i couldn't with the tranny in) can i just stick a couple of motorcycle lifts under it and drop it? i am going to start this process, and trust me the easier/faster i can get this done obviously the better!
