Its all good Kevin. Hopefully see you at the next one. I still have a bit more work to do to get the engine in the GQ.

WARNING!: Do not ever use a towball as a recovery point. They are not rated and can become a deadly projectile during a recovery if they snap off, and they have done so with tragic results in the past.

Well done guys, a top effort indeed. Try using a trolley jack to lift the gearbox up to line up with the motor also remove the engine mounts and brackets till you start 2 bolts in the bell housing. Also make sure the gearbox is in gear and the clutch is centered, it'll practically fall into place if you've done all that

Thanks for the tips Alitis. Will definately remember that when it comes time to install the motor.
