I am starting a transmission remove/replace and don't want to find out after the fact that I have the wrong tools. Should I use one? Is there a rental place around that has one? Getting started this afternoon.
I used two floor jacks and a home made "cradle" from an old steel framed creeper. The allowed me to raise and lower the tranny and case with only help from the wife.
A couple of other tips:
Get some 3-4 inch bolts the same size as the tranny mounting bolts. Cut the heads off and use them as studs to guide the tranny back in.
Thanks for the offer! I got the shift boots, handles and inspection cover off last night. I'll get the rest ready tonight and see how it goes. I had already bought a transmission jack adapter for my floor jack, so I'm going to try it first.
