Navara prep


Preparation of Navara ready to take out the engine and gearbox as one unit.



 As you can see a bit of modification to the bodywork by cutting out the slam panel.The loom and other parts will tie down out the way. As I remove the electrical connections I am labeling and photographing them.I will pull the Navara engine loom to one side for study when the engine is out.



Its fascinating to find that the bumper is only held on by 4, 8mm bolts some rust and a lump of good hard mud. I took the headlight out thinking there would be some fixings underneath. Looks the biz though. Theoretically the engine and gearbox should come out together which as I am on my own will make life a lot easier. Ok next job underneath to remove the front axle, drive shafts and lower the front suspension torsion bars and cross beam.
