Yea, some of the sub frame is about 1/8" thick. LOL
Do you have a write-up showing this guy how to lift the motor up a bit?
For all the write ups search "easy" and my SN
A bit wouldn't help. You'd basically be pulling it. Lowering is easier, however if he can't lower then likely he can't pull it either.
