I used the exact thread as Bullit has posted, but did a couple of things different.

No need to split the prop, just undo at the diff end buy removing 6x 6mm allen bolts, make each one with tippex, so you know where they came from and remove prop in one piece.

Also label every connector, i used masking tape and number each side of connector and also listed all numbers and where /what they were on paper.

Makes putting back together much easier, just a case of ticking of the numbers.

 

A must is the 3 x 30cm extension bars and a couple of decent 14mm sockets, this is to gain acces to the top bellhousing bolts.

 

Give it a go, you will learn loads about the zed engine and understand good and awkward bits.

Done 5 now (remove uno's, remove mine as dead, fit uno's to mine, and another remove and fit on uno's next zed,

i used a spanner to get to the top bell housing bolts:). its cos im good:rofl:

 

Self praise is no praise bud! :tongue:

I've done it slightly different, I dropping the subframe with everything attached. doing my head in now though, I think everything is detached:(

gst someone else to do it !!!

where's the fun in that??

My advice is to leave the box in the car.Once you lower the engine a few inches on the front crossmember you can get down the back and undo the four top bell housing bolts and the harness "p" Clip fixed at the back of the block.Ive done both ways over the years and the box in method is far easier imho.
