Default This has been posted many times before- not worth it in my opinion....

pulling the motor really isn't that hard to do.

Also, if you are going from K03's to KO4's you would have to change the inlet piping, etc. and might be doing the clutch at the same time anyway and that is easier with the whole motor/trans out.

Default Possibly- I guess I have never really looked at it too closely. The banjo...

bolts and other lines might be kind of touch but obviously it is doable if others have done it. I guess it's worth a try.

Sounds like a lift would make it a lot easier.

Default ive tried it, dont do it that way....it will be a huge waste of time...

pulling the motor is way easier. You will hit so many road blocks that by time you actually get them out, you might as well of just pulled the engine.
