Time to lower the car onto the engine! You'll definitely need an assistant or two to help, as someone needs to operate the lift while another makes sure the cradle is going in straight. Many fine adjustments to the location and pitch of the cradle will be needed as the vehicle is slowly lowered (small wooden blocks are a big help); use extreme care to make sure nothing gets crushed, bent, pulled, or otherwise screwed up. Areas of particular note to watch are the steering shaft and twisted mess of brake lines near the driver side strut tower; they'll need to be lined up and slipped into place as the car is lowered. Botch them up too badly, and you'll be dropping the subframe again! View Related Article
