Secure the subframe against the fixture plate. Use a retaining strap.

Lift the subframe. Align the subframe in the front mountings in the side members. Install the screws loosely, 4-5 threads.

Allow the subframe to hang down at the rear edge and to rest on the transmission jack.

Remove the temporary mounting for the steering gear. Allow the steering gear to rest on the subframe.
