SupporterHi Guys,
before I waste my time trying.... Can I remove the engine/box and transfer case without seperating them.... The bonnet closing panel looks to be spot welded together. So its possible I have to seperate everything ? (it is a 1992 model).
I'd much prefer to yank the whole lot out intact though!

SupporterThat makes sense, are the earlier ones bolted .... ie: I just drill say 6mm holes and bolt the panel back in where the spot welds areOriginally Posted by bee utey
(its going to be painted either way, But I've found its really easy to fill the drilled holes with a MIG ... but not actually weld the two panels back together).
And .... I just read the whole thing ... nutsertsI can do that! I've always wanted to buy a nutsert kit!

Wow, that is cheap. Be warned that the "pliers" on these tend to be pretty weak and deform. OK for alloy inserts, at the smaller sizes. But be careful... ask me how I know
