hey so i wanna get a paint job, how hard and how long would it take to clear the engine bay so i could get it painted

 

come on guys, 23 views and nothing, i know there's people out there that have done it. do u have to take out the whole engine or jsut he im.

 

remove front wheels.... remove the axle nut, remove brake assembly, remove axles.... unplug all wiring of the engine.... now... go get a engine hoist..... loose all bolts of the motor and tranny from motor mounts.... lift them up..... "prep" the engine bay, paint it.... install everythign back......

 

BTW... a lot of work..... and very difficult..... if you are alone... get someone to help (and make it less difficult)... be ready to spend 4 to 7 hours just clearing stuff up from engine bay....

 

yes its alot of work, i would only suggest doing it if you pull the motor. this is how far i got mine then everything i painted around...
i left the booster, mc, abs pump/brakelines, ac lines/compessor.

heres how far i took mine...
