Is it possible to take out a 4x4 cossie engine and leave the sump in place to basically undo all sump bolts first the lift out engine?

Yes, but you will likely have to cut the pickup pipe as it wont clear the sump when you're lifting it out, and leave the box in.

ah ok i'll bear that in mind. If i cut the pick up pipe can i replace it with a 2wd one as the engine will be having a 2wd sump put on it or will i have to use a 2wd pump as well.

Thanks for the reply.
