- 2002 protege5 2.0L 4CYL 5-SPEED Manual
we have a protege5 2.0L 4Cyl 5-speed manual trans, the rod bearings were spun so we pulled the motor after disassembling most of it to get it out, we then got a used motor almost fully built (except for water pump a/c and alternator) we do not have the oppertunity to put the car on the motor but we do have a cherry picker and the motor hoisted on that, the issue is there is not enough clearance for the clutch and flywheel to fall into the trans on one side and no clearance on the other side due to the body and pullies, the unfortunate issue is we are working in a 2-car garage with the few tools we have (hand tools, cherry picker, floor jack and stands and a couple friends) if you have any suggestions on how to sink this motor in its home in the easiest and safest way possible with what we have it would be greatly appreciated thank you
