Disconnect the starting motor cable, the engine ground straps, the cab or chassis to engine hoses, the tubing, the electrical wires, and the hydraulic lines.
NOTE: Dispose of used oil in accordance with federal, state, and local laws and regulations.
In installations such as short and medium nose conventional chassis, the factory installed rear engine lifting bracket is usually removed due to space constraints. In this case, the service rear engine lifting bracket, Part No. 3823920, will be required to remove the engine from the chassis.
The service rear engine lifting bracket, Part No. 3823920, consists of the bracket and eight 3/8-16×1 inch UNC (Grade 8) mounting capscrews and flat washers.
Use the following steps to install the service rear engine lifting bracket.
Attach the left plate of the lifting bracket to the fuel pump side of the rear rocker lever housing. Install the four 3/8-16×1 inch UNC (Grade 8) mounting capscrews and washers.
Torque Value: 75 n.m [55 ft-lb]
CAUTION
If all fasteners are not installed and tightened to the correct torque value, the lifting bracket will fail. Severe engine damage and personal injury are possible.

Attach the right plate of the lifting bracket to the exhaust side of the rear rocker lever housing. Install the four 3/8-16×1 inch UNC (Grade 8) mounting capscrews and washers.
If a liquid refrigerant system (air conditioning) is used, wear eye and face protection and wrap a cloth around the fittings before removal. Liquid refrigerant can cause serious eye and skin injury.
The engine lifting equipment must be designed to safely lift the engine and the transmission as an assembly. The dry weight of the standard engine with accessories is 1256 kg [2770 lbs]. Refer to the equipment manufacturer’s specifications for the transmission weight.
Use a correctly rated hoist; and attach engine lifting fixture, Part No. ST-125 or Part No. 3822512, to the engine mounted lifting brackets to remove the engine.
NOTE: If the transmission is
not
removed, place a support under the transmission to prevent it from falling.
If all fasteners are not installed and tightened to the correct torque value, the lifting bracket will fail. Severe engine damage and personal injury are possible.
Attach the lifting bracket to the fuel pump side of the rear rocker lever housing. Install the 3/8 – 16 X 1 inch UNC (Grade 8) mounting capscrews and washers into the rocker lever housing.
