We're trying to take off the Timing case from the 3.0. Its loosened up almost all around except around the area of the crankshaft.

Are there any other bolts that may be holding it in, or any ideas or suggestions how to loosen it up?

 

yes there is two bolts inside the oilpan you must take off .

 

LOL.. i knew this was going to be a real quick thread.... thats what we were thinking of but the timing case looks too thin to have a bolt holding it. And the Haynes manual wasnt specifyng how to do it(or maybe I overlooked that)

Thanks

 

did you get the 12mm on the left side of the timing case as well?

 

I believe so.... it was completely loose... except for the bottom end... but I'll have to double check it.

My brother is doing most of the disassembling because I work from 8-6 Monday thru Friday + Saturdays mid day, so I hardly ever have time to do it.... plus around this time of year, we have a lot of get-togethers, kids B-days, etc... I think I picked the wrong time to do it. Oh well!

 

fill your motor mounts. . .

just trust me. . .
