Easiest way to drop the tranny?
We are swapping trannys tomorrow on my 00 Monte Carlo. What is the best way to do this. We have never done any work on a Monte Carlo before?? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks to all

there are some things that need to be removed befor detatching the trans like the cv shafts as well if there in the way the power steering lines as well as the rack and pinion. i just wanted to give you a heads up as to plan the way of attack.

and the undercarriage, and the wheel assembly's, and the list goes on and on and on. im very good mechanically, i helped a buddy change out a tranny in 03 grand prix and well im just gonna save up and let someone replace mine for me in febuary.

ratchet strape and a 4x4 across the strut towers, dangerous but only way. your right your suppose to just unhook the engine and subframe and just lift the car up off the engine and tranny and then disassemble. if you havent worked on cars your whole life you should not attempt tranny swap, alot can go wrong, especially if your tryin it in your drive way.

I did not to do. My hubby did it. I of course did help take a few bolts out here and there and.... mostly watch! I helped him lower the engine and tranny in. So just a few more bolts and wires and put the axle back in and we should have her running. It is just getting more exciting.
