Do it just like any other except you dont have a grill in the way, Pull radiator, intercooler, all accerory coolers out, unhook all the electronics, undo the down pipe, support the transmission, unbolt the trans mission (only after securing the engine to a hoist to support the weight), and depending on te ride hight of your truck either remove the front tires and let the axle sit on jack stands or let some of the air out of the front tires to make it more accessable to remove. Its no different than pulling any other motor except theres more stuff in the way but its pretty self explanitory to just more or remove what evers in the way. Just mae sure you have a engine hoist that can lift the weight of the 6.4 (just shy of 1300lbs)

Hope that helps explain it a bit more.

Well said. Literally just pulled a 2011 6.7 with the cab on jus the way mentioned here except I left the radiator in and took all the bolts off the core support and tilted it out. Keep it protected with cardboard just in case. But you need to remove the motor mounts completely to be able to slide the motor forward enough to disconnect from the transmission. Yes left it in. But I did pull the heads off beforehand. I may remove the radiator before I reinstall the engine. My suggestion is to have a Lot of Storage bins to keep the millions of bolts organized.

You can pull engine without cab off. Guy has a walk through on youtube. I would never do it without pulling cab. Cab can be pulled in few hours. Map gas torch I recomend to heat cab bolts. If no lift buy a gantry crane hf has them for cheap if memory serves me correct.

Cash is a little tight but I think it would be best to pull cab next time. Either way it’s a lot of work. I’ve done many engine’s but this one takes the cake. Also my first diesel road vehicle
