Dodge Grand Caravan 3. 8 - Engine Replacement - Part 2 plane: wow good job, personally I'd have dropped her through the floor, but since you've probs un dressed tons of these motors, and know every nut and bolt on the peripherals, a dozen times over the years this was def the way to do it. for the guy that's approaching it not having worked on these before. I'd be more inclined to drop it dressed, w the tranny n k member, despite pulling the axles, and dressing it back up in the open air where i can see what im doing, plus you have awesome tools for tight spaces. difference between a pro and a hack lol, but hey, that's why you can do it ina an afternoon. and good on ya. i've done a toyota with just jacks blocks and air tools, and was pretty strait forward. it's the rusty bolts, and rounded fasteners that kill you for time and effort. and we didn't hit many at all. there's a point where it's just not worth it, fasteners break off in the motor, etc and the thing may as well hit the junk yard. it's past being workable. happened a lot in older cast iron stuff, and has been engineered out of most modern cars. but still happens, salt, winter etcc. either way good content, logical approach, good and quick nie to see real skills, and real dirty hands, not, a word from our sponsors, and boom the motors buttoned up. n you don't see the fiddling. this is what i really looks like lol. thnx for posting

Nice video, But I would never use a chain that small to pull an engine. I had an argument with a guy who wanted to use a chain that size once. He won the argument because it was his car. The engine was an old straight six. He started pulling and the chain broke. When it comes to something like that, I don't take any chances. I use the size that tow chain is made of. 3/8 or 5/16.

First I would to say your a better man than me! After watching the first and second video it made realize why I chose the big TRUCK INDUSTRY; more room to work and a lot less specialized hand tools. Which doesn't make the tool guy ( MAC / SNAP ON) happy.
But I must say you use good products! ( KROIL, Fluid Film & CRC)

Hi there, you should firstly give Verbal instructions at each step, for example at the last
stage, i guess you still have the Engine Mounts attached, then you have to attach the
Jack to lift the Engine to the Engine then remove the Engine mounts. etc.

If you have a nut or bolt you instinctively know is frozen in place and is going to break, first tighten to break it free, then loosen. It seems counter-intuitive but I stopped breaking fasteners with this simple trick.

'Sounds worse than it is'. Hope so, it sounds like you cracked the windshield, broke the firewall, pulled off a motor mount and dropped the transmission! You're pulling an engine man, not raising the Titanic!

Tony the tiger did not say Oh yeah. Kool-Aid did. Tony the tiger said Theeere Grrreate. sorry Eric I'm OCD like that.
Hey at least I'm intent on your videos.

11: 38 When it gets hot like that it's like it put a torch on itself, the nut expands faster than the bolt, and it's out. Just pray the welded nut stays put.

Hey good work I'm here in ontario canada. another rust belt. I put my line swivel on before my coupler now all my air tools have the benefit of it

Ugly. That's all I can say. It needed a Barrett Sniper rifle with a explosive round. That would have fixed it permanently.
