Re: Supporting engine when removing trans
I have to say That NOT everyone in here is a professional mechanic with professional tools / A lift / and Many are first time owners of a classic truck , when we give advice we all need to remember that many of the people in here have never touched a jack or a set of jack stands in their life , They come here looking for advice and many follow what they read word for word and I think that we all should support SAFETY as the most important aspect of working on these old trucks more so than any other advice we can give . "you" may be the most experienced mechanic or restorer in here and fast isn't always the best idea when we're dealing with procedures that quite possible could get someone killed or seriously injured if done wrong . Think safety first !
