IDK if anyone cars but this is the 1st time that I actually get to pull a car apart.

So far I got the rad and the exhaust mani out. Had trouble pulled hoses out until i said fudge it and used a screwdriver and it helped alot.

ITS FUN to just pull a car apart not knowing anything then starting ton learn where everythng is.

Got a manual (90-00 323/protege haynes). Can't stand the chiltons.

Next obsticle, getting tranny out. The thing is no hoist so anyone got advice without using a hoist. can i just carry it out with two friends?

You don't need a hoist at all to get the transmission out... I've gotten it in/out by myself.... a bit akward, but it's light enough that it's not too difficult.

Just use a floor jack to support the engine from below when you remove the crossmember, and lower it slowly until you can drop the transmission out from below.

you talking about the 323 trans right?
