escort zetec engine removal
hi all this is my first post on here . my question is can you remove the escort mk6 zetec out the top without the box as when i had the mk4 cvh engine you only had to remove the crank pulley for clearance . just i dont want the hassle of dropping lower suss arms and removing the drive shafts cos the mess of the gearoil . if i have to then so be it i have all the gear to do it eg hoist & adjustable engine doofer ma jig/tilter tool but iam working out doors in road . ps hope no one else has asked same question

Too many posts.. I need a life!!
Yes can be done, but takes alot of twisting and forcing. Is easier to drop the box and then lift engine outta top.
And forgot to mention it's a nightmare putting engine back in when gearbox is left in situ.
