If you have to lean into an engine bay and do it by yourself, it can be pretty rough. Learned that the first time. Hood comes off from now on! lol
A 12pack of brew and a buddy makes short work of it though.
haha. We have the hood on the truck still, My dad (5'11"), Me (6'2") each leaned into the engine bay on each side and lifted it up and over the radiator to get it out.. Rested it on the radiator to reposition ourselves and got her out..
