Technical 2011 2.3 gearbox linkages

[adlarplant]

After 708000kms old faithful has finally died you'd. think that a 4 and a half year old motor would last longer lol Anyways found a low km motor and gearbox combo and are about to swap it out just wondering the easiest way to remove the gear linkages or if someone could post a parts picture of the same just to make it easier Cheers Adam

It spun a big end bearing (no.2) damaged the crank ,rod spat the bearing out into the sump cheaper to replace the engine ,it still ran and started but it had that terminal sound that old engines get .To say im impressed with the product is an understatement its been places that the fiat engineers would dread only replacing the gearbox and drive shafts because they will all match age wise and knowing i wont have to touch them again for at least 400000kms
