Pulling engine on F600

Anyone have experience on pulling the motor and tranny together on an 1969 F600? can it be done? Any out of the ordinary headaches involved.
Thanks.

I suppose the only problem you might have is getting the tranny up/out of the hole. Tilting the motor enough to get it out. I suppose if you pulled the front sheetmetal(or at least the grille/core support) would make it easier.

I've done it on my 68 without any problem. If I recall the radiator must be out for clearance.

Blue68f100......this is a F600, not a F100. Slightly larger tranny(likely?), which is why I was concerned with getting it out in one piece. It might come out easily, but something to think about.

I've had my F100 apart a bunch of times(with tranny), but it's only a toploader 4spd(not a truck 4 spd). Radiator always has to be outta the way.

Mine has the C6 auto which I recall is slightly longer than a manual. If you can raise the body to give extra tile may help too. Is the cross frame centered under the engine or toward the back? I sure like stabbing trannys when I'm not under the cab. Where I can easly align things up. But if you have a tranny jack it may not be to bad.
