Did some work on the BMW today, not as much progress as I would have liked, but started to remove the diff. Originally I planned to remove the engine today but as I thought about it I realised I needed the car on the ground again prior to lifting the engine.
This is so that a; I don't need to lift the engine as high and b; I can roll the car half out the garage to have more space to maneuver the engine once it's out. With the new plan, I needed to make sure everything that needs to be done whilst the car is on axle stands, is done prior to removing the engine. Removing the diff was the most important job to do.
As mentioned, didn't get very far as I discovered I needed to jack the back of the car up higher to get underneath it, then to make access easier I removed the rear bumper, whilst I was at the back I also removed the rear lights (Ready for eBay) and then took an hour to remove just one of the bolts holding the prop shaft to the diff!
