Its a process... you have to obviously remove the subframe. So you have to disconnect the ebrake cables, take the brake calipers off, take the exhaust off, disconnect the driveshaft, and take a few suspension components off. I havent decided if I want to burn them out like i did on my 240sx or drill the meat out and cut the race with a sawzaw.

Taking it out from the bottom is the "proper" way to do it. Unfortunately I don't have prolonged access to a lift and Im doing all the work at my house with no lift. So the next option is to remove the radiator support.

It wasn't that bad. Maybe 2 hours, and thats a high estimate. The most difficult part was taking the ziptied wiring harness off of the fan shroud lol. Also, trying to disconnect the AC lines with cheap disconnect tools was a waste of time. I had to borrow some nice ones and they came off really easy.
