I use a door panel puller tool. It works great. Note: I have heard that the 65 metal retainers sometimes come loose and can be "eaten" by the fan. Not good. Many people use the 66-69 plastic retainers for that reason. Those plastic retainers often get destroyed when removing so get a few e...

Be sure to get a factory assembly manual. It will be your best friend during your build.

Thanks. I have been designing a receiver hitch in my head just for this. However, my welder is a 50amp and I only have 40amp service in my garage. I have to find someone with a welder to do the job.
