- The below tutorial is shown for separating the gearbox from engine while both remain in vehicle.
- It was performed for the purpose of easily refitting the gearbox to the engine following the replacement of the clutch slave cylinder.
- The powertrain in this case is transversal as it relates to a 2013 Renault Duster 4x4.

Why the powertrain support bar is much useful on transversal engine configuration:
The engine bar or beam, sits on the inner fenders of the car as shown.
It allows you to either hold the entire powertrain, or to attach separately each of the engine and gearbox.
The handle-nut is there to adjust the height of the entire powertrain for refitting the engine mounts for example, or to adjust the alignment of the engine and gearbox when refitting the gearbox, etc.

On transverse powertrains, the engine support beam and the powertrain are parallel:
If you had separated your engine and gearbox, you may attach each to the beam for adjusting the alignment prior to pushing the gearbox through the clutch:

Using the engine support beam for engine and gearbox alignment or powertrain pre-positioning on engine mounts:
Simply rotate each handle clockwise to raise the powertrain, or counterclockwise to lower it.
The screws allows for an adjustment on some 30 cm of height which is more than enough for any precision refitting task.
