Forrest 35 Report post Posted June 25, 2009 Creaver has a manual box for sale in the FS Forum. Wants like 800/900 for it. I <3 m30's. If I had more time, money and space I would do it. Good luck man Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bravo 35 Report post Posted June 25, 2009 Nice David Brown. We have one the same with an identical front end loader, except we have upgraded the cable release to hydraulic action. Used it to pull the motor out of my e30 too - works well huh? I was able to use the bucket hydraulics for fine tuning though - probably more than you'd be able to. Anyone able to tell me a trick to getting it out easily - I struggled to get the fan and sump over the front frame whilst clearing the box in the trans tunnel and the back of the rocker cover against the firewall. Did it in the end, but it was a bitch. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[/quote yeah it worked a treat the old Dbrown, took fan off, sump gave me and mate some hassle but just gave it a riggle and hey presto out it comes easier than i thought Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
