Removing the steering rack may be one of the most annoying things I've done on this car. First, the tool clearance to remove the feed and return fittings is absolutely horrid. Once you do get that done, snaking the rack out of the subframe is quite the puzzle. But it can be done before the subframe comes off. Here's the aftermath
Now time to remove the rear engine mount bolt. As I will learn, this is very easy on an EG or DC from underneath the car, but this isn't the case on an EK. Time to get the extensions and a universal joint out.
Those pics show the easiest way to do this. Grab roughly 3 feet of 1/2" drive extensions (I hate to keep plugging Sears, but they have a really useful extension for ~$30) and remove the bolt from outside the car.
Now a moment of zen
kay thanks bye
