So I've got a '03 6spd 4x4 with a toasted motor. Want to pull it but I've been told the tranny needs to dropped to get enough clearance to tip it out.

Anyone figure out a way to do it with the tranny in?

Have to remove the ac condenser, intercooler, transmission cooler, and radiator. Then just pull the engine out the front of the truck.

Have you done this with a '03? Apperently with the large overhang on the cowl and the lack of room on the crossmember its not possible.
