Pulling the motor
Ok so I have everything disconnected in the Yukon. I lifted the motor and the oil pan isint clearing the cross member before the top of the intake hits the fire wall. Do I need to remove the tranny cross member to give the motor and tranny more tilt? Or am I doing something wrong here?
