Reply With QuoteI had this problem too. I used a large breaker bar on the wheel nuts to move the disco. Not that hard. I also used a ratchet strap to hold the gear box up (around the chassis rails and under the box) worked a treat.
Good luck.

As per this thread,
Looking for Backyard Mechanic - Engine Change - Northern Rivers NSW
I need to reinstall this 300 tdi engine for another forum member.
Problem is the vehicle is on gravel not concrete, so therefore I need to pull/push the D1 towards the engine crane to get the engine in.
It doesn't need to move far, only maybe 2 meters.
If anyone is local to Byron Bay is able to lend a hand from 8am to 10am saturday 5th january it would be appreciated.
Once the engine is in the engine bay, I will have it under control.
Cheers,
Tony
