In the top of the cowl? Or?

i was thinkin about that, but there are like 4-6 bolts under there. plus i'm not sure i can get the valve cover off, or the exhaust manifold easy.

other than the anxiety of the weight on a HF crane, it's actually not bad puling it vs other junk i've messed with. i made the engine mounts come out really easy totally out of the way, and the front clip won't have anything mounted to it but one lighting connection and 6 bolts to pull. drain some fluids, drive shaft, fuel line n starter wires.

Yeah dodge does it from the factory. I almost got ****ed on that doing a head gasket on a 12v swapped suburban.
