M42 Pulling party...2/19/11...PDX

[AbeSonic]

Dumb ass me, starts my car up then closes door. Door then proceeds to lock itself. I don't realize it till like 5 min later as I'm trying to get in. SO, I tried to pry open my already breaking driver's side pop out window to see if I can pop the lock and ended up breaking it in half. x.x Luckly the window tint held all the glass together.
Drove home with 70mph wind on my back lol

Damn dude! You broke a pop out window? I have one if your interested No tint though. What time did you end up heading home?

[AbeSonic]

Rick's already got one for me. I called my gf and bitched to her about it. Then I called Rick and took care of it. lol He's pulling it out for me tomorrow. As soon as we got back to his house I left like 15 min after.

How did the removal go?

[Matt-B]

good, the m42 is much smaller then m20/m50 so it was a breeze, had a cheap bolt on driveshaft, so it stripped on r3moval. But i got it.

Ill be m50 for the picnic

My pull went smoothly as well. However, I forgot to disconnect something, the slave cylinder out of all things. The line is now kinked. Easy fix.

Quick pic of the m42 in all its glory.

Now take those motors, double them and their trans in size, imagine a smaller engine bay with more susp running across it than any e30, and thats what I have been doing solo. ;)

Its in, I am bolting up the axles and driveline right now. Then exhaust and putting him back on the ground.

Glad to see you guys had success at both locales.
