As mentioned, EVERYTHING. Once it's bolted back to the chassis, hook up the PCM/wiring, fuel lines, drive shaft, front brakes, coolant hoses, bleed the system and you're DONE.

lol We make it sound like its too easy...Probably because it is. I will never even attempt to do it from the top. Why do it when you can have easy access to everything.

I pulled mine from the bottom in September with everything still on the motor and i mean everything. I plan on putting it back in the bottom with everything attached. It is much easier putting in from the bottom.

The steering column and master cylinder if a manual. The thing that I have the most problem with is keeping the engine away from the brake lines, everything else is kind of easy. Oh yea, don't forget about your shifter ****, I broke a center console once.
