Re: new guy,BIG question...

Hi there newbie,
With the E28s I usually just cut the car in half. Just Joking. IIRC,
I think you might have to raise or lower the engine a bit. I am
pretty sure you can use a set of extensions(lots,like 2 or 3 feet),
wobbly socket, and you have to get it from way back over the tranny.
It helps to have someone looking in the engine bay to get the socket
on the nut. Dont hold me to any of this.....

For humor, its true,I did once dismantle an e12 and cut the firewall
out to get the engine
and tranny apart. Good old days.

Seriously, i would pose the question on the E30 list. There are some
real fantastic people over there.
