Where can i get this?
After reading throug the procedures on my Ford CD this evening, it's nowhere near as difficult as i was telling myself. Thanks for the boost in confidence guys, I'm going to get everything disconnected this saturday and actually pull the motor the next weekend (can't get the picker untill then).

I forgot where I got mine but I think any AutoZone, Advance Auto Parts, or similar place would carry them.
Looks like this and should be labeled "Ford A/C + Fuel Line Disconnect Tool".

the passenger side axle is easy to pull off. then, you can pop the driver's side out from the passenger side, through the diff. you must do it in this order as the driver's side is a bear. it was our first time pulling the motor and we did it in one evening, few hours. a friend will definitely be a good idea. take is sloow when coming out. i remember we had to do some slight shifting of the motor to clear some stuff. watch out for the AC pump. it might snag and tweak the ac hard line. oh yeah, the lovely 2.5 has only one "hook" to connect the chain/strap to. grab some bolts to thread into the motor so you can connect the chain to it.

I think the fastest dale, JD, and myself have pulled a motor is about 3 hours. Dale and I pulled my motor in say 4 hours.

Anyone else doing it this way, or have another way of doing it, pulling the axles is realy the only thing i'm not positive i know how to do anymore.
