Craig,

Second person very helpful.  Third is a nice luxury.

I can't believe you cannot find help.  If I were within a couple hundred
miles of your place, and you were willing to pay me with a burger when
we were finished, I'd be at your doorstep.  Try asking the list for help
& see what happens.  Don't let them drink beer till the tranny is IN.

Place tranny on your chest, with your feet toward the front of the van.
Bench press the tranny up to about the elevation it needs to be, then
push it into place using both your arms and your knees.  Hold it there
while you slip a nut onto one of the lower studs.  Done.

Jacks are for wimps.
