Read I needed to lift the engine. That wasn't necessary. Read I needed to pull the dipstick tube. That wasn't necessary either. Just smacked it with a mallet and gave it a wiggle. Pan off, mains in, crank balancer on. Old rear was 9 and 3. Tapped out with the butt of a drill bit. Geometry issues torqueing balancer with present tools, so will remove radiator to do it. Not replacing the radiator until new bushings get here. Best to take the old out and put the new in at once. Prevents losing things. Since the rad's in my way and I'm holding the crank inside the block to torque the snout, the pan can go back on after the new radiator's in. I've hurried up. Time to wait.
