    Swaping RD28 for TD42

    I am replacing RD28 motor in my 96 GQ with a TD42. Can I pull out the motor and gearbox together??
    The weight is not an issue for me, I just want to know how much I have to do to get it out. can I leave the A/C condensor in place etc.

    When i did mine i pulled them out seperate due to the weight on the engine hoist i was afraid it might topple over.
    I left the ac condensor in and the compressor only to find out i had to swap the compressor later on anyway but you may be lucky their was a few different types.
    Heres some info on my swap
