mate holed the sump on my truck after the jack slipped of the axel housing.
so far we have the gearbox on a liftable platform under car and the engine is about to be lifted out 2"to get access to the 4 bolts on the back of sump which are covered by flywheel . any advice or has any one done an engine out or gearbox out in a crd and has tips or tricks

+1 Haven't done it myself, but have both heard that you need to pull the motor out to do the sump, and also heard that you can do it in car......so that is confusing.


What I do know it that the motor is prone to oil leaks, which means it may be easier if you can get it out to remove, clean it up, and reseal it back up out of the car.
