Got the 'Dirty Beast' home .. how the hell am I supposed to maul that into the garage!

It Arrives

Dirty Beast
Looks like getting filthy with the paraffin & big brush!

Four castors bolted to a piece of wood - that's what I did.

Big bit of wood and a mate then just carry it in.

I have carried one on my own. Not recommended for your back. .

Unbolt as much as you can where it is. Things like the aircon pump and alternator will be about 5 kilos each.

Then get someone to help you lift it onto some sort of wheeled trolly

That was exciting!!
Piece of wood .. 2 of us..
On to a small trolley..
Wheels no longer round
Will strip off the rubbish over the next few days and move it to the bench ..
Should be a bit lighter by then

Stop being a weiner!! Walked mine across the floor into the garage on my own!
Get down the gym!

Skate board

All the bits are coming off before I even think about moving it..
That was seriously heavy with all that junk !!

Interesting to see the 'proper' belt routing- I might get an auto tensioner and shift some stuff about!

I moved mine 200 meters down the road to a council garage on a sack truck. Got some strange looks!

Yeah .. I'm aware of the rotation of the water pump..
Its centrifugal so it 'can' run backwards but can cavitate & causes air locks at high speed..
Be nice to get it clean !!

Keep hold of the ribbed idler pulley it will come in very useful.

Zetec Pulley System

Going for something like this ..

Nice Solution
