  • Little help on removing rear end

    I'm finally about done ripping my car apart, I procrastinated way too much and finally I've been told the car needs to be gone and I refuse to move it again unless it's to the closest scrap yard. I've almost completely removed the interior, wiring, front end, engine, trunk bits, and the car is not sitting, face down a$$ up propped up on logs. I need to remove the rear end, which has been dismantled twice (suspension) and reassembled. There are no struts or cvs.

    I'm hoping to remove it as one piece so it's easier to transport and store until I can find a buyer. I have spent a great deal of time looking at the service manual, and vaguely understand the diagram. I searched and read a bunch, and remember seeing a photo of the complete assembly removed, but I can't quite figure it out.

    I started removing the brackets close to the jack point on both sides, if I continue unbolting all the bushing spots will it just drop out? The car is about 25 mins drive from town, so the last few times I ended up going I didn't have the right tool... so did what I could.

    Thanks for any suggestions in advance

    you will have to disconnect the brake lines that run from the body to subframe as well as the e-brake cables. There are a set of electrical connectors for the attessa and wheel speed sensors that need to be disconnected, as well as a fluid line for the attessa pump. Then you can just take out the 4 subframe nuts and drop it down.
