Getting the tranny on and off the jack while under the car wasn't to hard though so definitely worth using the jack during install.

Nice picture, definitely gives me a different perspective, any suggestion on pulling the trans off the back of the engine?

I got a quickjack now but if I would do the job again I would probably use jackstands again for the extra room on the sides.

I was thinking about the same, my friend has a pair of quickjack that I can borrow, it's easy to raise and looks more stable, but also limits the sides space, not only for the trans but also my body position as well. So maybe I should just continue using my jackstands
