Hey guys I'm helping a buddy remove his 98 eclipse motor because its blown. I would like to know the sequence
I only swap Hondas and Acuras so I'm not sure if this is the same or not.
Is it similar:
remove battery unplug harness from engine bay
remove all parts connecting to the body (radiator,ac,ps etc)
take out axles
hook up motor with hoist
remove motor from motor mounts
pull from top?
Thanks in advance

pulling a motor is the same in almost any car. you have it down in what you posted
but if it is awd you need to take the transfer case off also

^^ I edited my post to 32mm. After I posted that, I thought about it, and they are much bigger than 22mm haha
