I noticed that the oil I had noticed dripping originally from the transmission / engine joint, was actually brown instead of purple (royal purple break in oil in motor), and more than likely coming from the tranny instead of the motor

couldn't physically lift the motor onto my porch, or get it inside the house, and I feel like it's going to be a pretty messy job anyway, so I put it on a stand in front of the rig and bagged it because it looked like we may have rain this week.  I'll strip the accessories and other components where it sits, and get it all broken down and cleaned so I can move it inside.

Last time I was at the shop, they had to use a forklift and straps to get the thing out of the back of my truck, so I went ahead and took the cherry picker with me.  Only took about 15 minutes to unload the thing by myself.

Some tricky maneuvering to get the engine and the stand loaded up in the back of the truck.  Notice the powerline coming in =)
