I have looked, but have found no valid ones so far. But I have found a valid copy of a cobalt service manual online, but I don't know the models it covers.
... or buy a set of these at Habor Freight:
Those would have made this a lot easier. Got it into the final resting place in the garage, and I am sort of worried if I will have enough clearance to get the engine out with the hoist I am using.
Assuming dperkins is the same as a Drew D. Perkins.. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drew_D._Perkins
It's not getting out it of the car that is the problem, it's actually getting the hoist in there and then getting the engine out of the way. I have about 1-2 feet of space in between the wall and the stuff in front of it that I need to get the hoist in there and I hope it's enough space. If it isn't enough I will figure something that will work. It's sort of hard to explain so I'll check the clearances today and report back.
It's a 2017 488 spider that I wrapped... still figuring out the kinks and making the wrap look better
Looks like you could just unbolt the front subframe and engine from car, then lift the front of the car body up and roll the engine/subframe right out from under it with the room you have...possibly...?
I'm in the same boat with a few of my projects. That gantry hoist from Harbor Freight is looking pretty good about now.
I'm surprised you found that that quickly!
It helped that you posted your location in the profile and seeing the address that came up with the search it wasn't much of a stretch to assume it was one in the same. Glad to have you as a fellow Goblin builder!
