Went out to one of my Co-Workers houses today and used his big beefy branch to pull the engine out! There was one half rotted bolt that just spun in the hole so we just hoisted and pried with a good old fashioned crowbar! After that was free it was just a matter of disconnecting the steering and the throttle cables and BAM! Floating engine! Now, to get this thing out of my truck, LOL!

Images after getting her home. Got her off the truck (shocks sighed about 4in lol!) and lowered onto the ground. Now I need to figure out what to strip before I put her up for sale.

Well its been a sad week in rebuild land. I am without my truck. The warranty ran out 200 miles and 12 days before the overdrive gear completely went out, 1/2 shifts hard and some kind of water leak. But hey! That's what a warranty's for. So I've been in a rental since last Monday and cant move the boat back into my work space. Looking forward to getting back on her, grinder discs and sandpaper en route.
