| It has the push button auto. From what I see, I am assuming the trans and brake assembly come in one piece?
That means the subframe needs to come with it from what I can see.
Do I need to unload the torsion bars first, or does the frame drop out independent of the torsion bars?
Do I have to do anything with the suspension if i am removing the motor and trans?
Any other advice would be greatly appreciated

Location: northern germany | no need to touch the frame or suspension. only the transmission cossmember must be removed. you will have to remove the hood too. btw, get a shop manual |

| I got the 60 shop manual. Wasn't clear on engine removal, or I didn't find the right part. And it was wrong on the cable removal or I have a later tranny. Had to come in from the cable side not the neutral start side. It calls for removing trans and motor separate. I was going to pull together. Am I going to find out the hard way that is not possible? |

Location: Peoples Republic of Oregon | Engine and trans together is a big/bulky piece of hanging weight. I'd think that it would be more work than if separated. Are you removing the trans for rebuild or ? If you don't have a vehicle lift you need to exercise caution when under the car with the trans laying on your chest...use a trans jack at a minimum.
Ask Mopar1 for his thoughts, he has a 60 Fury. |

| We're splitting them. We're going to block the trans, pull the engine, drop the trans, raise the car, slide it out. |
