Getting ready to replace an engine. Any tips from experience ?

Plan to pull radiator, clutch, trans, bell housing, install without fan, ribs, injector rail. There is a bracket up front that looks suitable for picker chain, what do we use rear ?

Is crank nut tightened once the engine is installed to drive line ?

How tough is rear seal to replace ?

Thank you,

Thank you,

I think there is a hole at the back of the block near the bell housing for the rear hook

I didn't have trouble replacing rear seal, but it leaked again.

If you get the tool that Bavauto sells you can tighten it any time.
