I was wondering if anyone had advice on gaining better engine access. I have been replacing raw water pumps and alternators on my 3600 Open and it is all I can do to squeeze into the fwd outboard corners of my engine room. I have Cat 3208's. I was wondering if anyone is releasing the hatch rams and raising the hatch higher. I'm not sure how I would lift it except maybe raise it and block it off and add ram extenders. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
