Hullo there!

I have removed the motor from my stock 72 Fastback. As its IRS I have supported the trans with a bar and chains. The car is on jacks at the mo.

Is it safe to put the car back down on its wheels under its own weight as it is?

Just wanted to make sure!!!

Thanks!

It will be ok.

Just make sure that the way the tranny is supported is secure and you can move it wherever you want.

Is it an automatic?? if so, hold the torque converter in also. A board across the bellhousing will do.
