I have a tech tip for you. I would like to not have to drop the transmission all the way to the ground while pulling the engine. To clear the radiator support with the oil pan I have to lower the front of the car so I can't leave the jack under the trans (I guess two jacks would work but what Coonass has two floor jacks). This time I got Coonass smart and used a rachet strap to hold the T5 up against the floor of the car. I pulled the T5 tail housing back inside the driveshaft loop and hooked a strap to the driver's door bar down through the shifter hole under the trans and back up through the shifter hole to the X in the passenger side roll bar. Then used the rachet to pull it tight against the bottom of the floorboard. So far so good.

I would've thought you already had pulling a 4.6 down to a science.
