Engine and transmission removal

[RobbieMac]

Can anyone help me? I can't find info on removing and replacing a TD27engine - turbo - and auto trans. I am looking at doing this in my 1994 Terrano R3M. The best I can find is warnings to be careful doing it but I would like detailed information please if anyone can help. Pictures are good, too. If anyone has already posted this on NPORA could I please be directed to it. Thanks

I kinda like my TD27 so havent looked into it yet but if you do rip it out and decide to turn it into parts please let me know (spares are always helpful lol)

G'day Craig

I'm probably buying a 1991 Turbo diesel auto for parts: I'm mainly after a good auto trans but this one is much lower mileage than my 1994 and expect to transplant the complete engine/trans/transfer case. Also wheels - I need a couple of good tyres to get the '94 roadworthy and registered. The '91 had a roadworthy certificate on it 5 months ago so there are probably some front end bits worth transferring over, too. Not sure yet whether to do a swap of parts and sell the '91 complete, sell parts separately or keep stuff for myself. I would almost certainly be selling the engine - it seems good to me but I'm not yet used to diesels and the various noises they make! It's done 314,000 kms.

314k isnt that bad, the TD27 is good for 1m as long as it's looked after
