About a year ago the '89 crew cab started spewing coolant out the front, right, upper corner of the engine. I finally got it into the shop this winter and have pulled the engine. I'm middlin' sure the problem is the head gasket - the leak was kinda visible below the exhaust manifold. I started out to remove the engine and leave the transmission in place. That might have worked if I'd pulled the starter and the oil filter first. I didn't. So, we wound up dropping the transmission and transfer case as a unit, then the engine lifted right out.
Anyway, the engine is out and I plan to replace the starboard head gasket and the rear main seal. Unless I find really big issues, I don't plan to do anything else.
