Final stage of droping motor few Q?

First question. Do i leave the tires on when droping the motor?

Second. I see the 3 bolts on each side that hold the k-member(or what ever) to the frame but also noticed in the wheel well part of it sticking through the frame. when i unbolt everything how do i get the k-member out of those litle notches? will i be able to move that part?

Final question. I have droped the motor how hard is it to get everything lined back up for the reinstall? any pointers?

the k member should just drop out. those tab's you see are the nut's on the inside of the frame.. to get everything lined back up there are pin's that will locate the k in the frame of the car.. so if everything is lined up you should have no problem putting her back togheter..

I took my wheels off and lowered the k member onto a couple of car dollies. It made it easy to roll around the garage. You dont have to take them off though.
