[so slow 420]

I have to do a timing belt and throw out bearing in 420a eclipse 5 speed and I plan to do head gasket as well would it b easyer to pull motor and transmission out at once or just do it in the car

[dsmcrzy]

Yes. Or you can drop both out the bottom of you have a lift

Yes sir not very hard actually with a hoist at least.

This opinion has already been voiced several times, but I definitely agree. Pulling the whole thing out, especially with a hoist, will make your life easier.

Posted yesterday as well.

I have only removed the engine and trans from the top as one piece. Remove hood and use an engine hoist with a load leveler once everything has been disconnected. A load leveler allows you to tilt the engine and trans during removal. These items can be had for a very reasonable price at Harbor Freight. Sounds like you will also want an engine stand as well.
