There is a clever device called a transmission jack ... it rolls
under the car, you put the transmission on the transmission jack,
move it as you desire, forward, backward, up, down, makes the whole
experience ... gratifying ... ;-)
>My experience is that it takes two gearheads to take out a transmission and
>two or three to put one back in depending of if it's overdrive or non
>overdrive. With the overdrive Transmission I like to have two gearheads
>under the car supporting the transmission and lining it up and one in the
>car maneuvering the transmission and turning the tail flange to line up the
>main shaft with the clutch plate.
> In my opinion its not worth the chance of messing up the main shaft
>or something else by trying to remove/replace the transmission without
>adequate help.
