Cinnamon 75 Duster \
I welded up a cart a couple days ago from some metal I had laying around . I did have to buy one set of casters.
Disconnected almost everything yesterday, Pulled rad, alt, AC, column etc.
With the car on the ground, It had about an inch of clearance above the cart. Unbolted crossmember and lowered the tranny with a jack (pan sits on flat cross bar), then pull the wheels and lower front till cart rails cradle the K. Popped the T-bars, unbolted UCA's, Tied up the calipers, Unbolted the K and lift the car....
Maybe not quite that simple; I did initially miss the e-brake intermediate cable, speedo connection to trans and a couple other small items that caused hang-ups. Once I had it on the ground I ran a chain across it to hold th rotors off the ground and drug it in the garage with the lawn tractor.
Overall it went really well. Worst part was I picked a couple 90 degree plus days to do it.
