It’ll definitely go in or out with the motor raised up a few inches and the subframe dropped. It won’t if you just raise the motor to the max you can while it’s attached to the tranny….i spent an hour or two on my back trying to bench press that thing in with thr x5 on jackstands and the engine pulled up as high as I dared.
Eventually i threw in the towel and used several floor jacks to drop the subframe several inches. I didn’t have to pull the motor mount, if I recall correctly. I also don’t remember if unbolted the struts at the tower or the knuckle. Probably the tower is a bit easier. It all sucked at that stage.
