Lower jack slowly.

You may run into the motor mount hitting the studs due to angle. If so, use i believe a 7mm socket to unscrew the motor mount studs.


As to the question of how I lowered the motor. I bought a m10 spacer and some longer studs and just added the spacer between the motor mount and the chassis with some hardened washers.


There is flex in the oil filler tube, but if you're concerned, just disconnect it at the motor end.
Okay if it’s only the filler tube to worry about no sweat. I have fixed that thing a few times. I would have thought there were at least half a dozen things that could get hung up
