Thanks for the video, almost have my 79 engine out. Just got 3 more things to disconnect, I’m so excited. Been watching so many videos but nothing compares to just hands on learning. I’ve been so scared to work on the bus but it’s teaching me a lot same with the KZfaq videos it’s nice to see someone mess up cause shit happens lol I’m gonna be care with the jack hopefully doesn’t slip out

I wouldnt worry about the end. That’s happens 50% of the time. Most roll it back if the Jack and drag it out anyways. Great detailed video! Well done.

thanks for this. just a real nice job on editing.

Thanks for the documentation! Should have watched it yesterday, my shifter linkage didn't disconnect properly and hung up... Oh well, hopefully the nosecone is ok! Lol..

Thanks for the video mate. There are very few, if any, showing the gearbox being removed while attached to the motor. The manuals (Bentley and Haynes) both recommend dropping them together if they are both coming out. Was it caught on the gearbox mount - nose cone end? Seemed to be high at that end. What’s your plan for the rest of it? The bodywork looks like the typical British bus! You doing a full restoration or just driving it and patching as you go? Good work and good luck.

Do I have to take the bumper off?

Hi Buck I am removing my engine for the 1st time this weekend, the only thing in your video is do yo have to remove the starter motor completely to lower engine and transmission or is it just the wire that came off thanks in advance Larry 👍
