I have recently had trouble with my 06 duramax and it needs to come apart. Does anyone know or have any suggestions on the easiest way to go about pulling it out?

 

pull the core support out, and bumper. remove the ac filter/drier, and disconnect all the grounds. there should be two coming off the sides of the block and one off the back of the head. don't forget to remove the power wires bolted to the block that snake around the engine. dis connect the transmission and torque converter.

support the transmission with a jack and lift the engine out after hooking it to the hoist and then unbolting the engine mounts.

it takes a few hours working alone
