well I watched the videos on taking the front clip off that looked do able. After that I take that you would pull the tranny .Since I don't have a lift I guess I  pull the shifter up thru floor floor. I assume I  leave the bell housing  on the motor. remove exhaust ,remove brake and clutch from the bell housing  disconnect starter pedal bracket and any  misc wires throttle choke cable  ,remove bolts from both rear motor mounts and the front mount  than slide motor forward and lift does anyone have any suggestions never done this before. thanks     happy new year

Just did it. I found I had to remove the steering box from the frame to get clearance to get the brake pedal off. I suspect you could lower the back of the motor first, the slide it off, do the reverse when re installing.

 

Being able to adjust the angle of the motor as you remove it will help as well. They make bars that go between the motor and hoist the can adjust this. Front needs to come up, back down as you pull it, then the reverse as it goes back.
