Re: How heavy transmission is?
 
Too specific, and expensive. Just drill a hole the floor jack
pedestal, and chain it.

Re: How heavy transmission is?
 
I have car lift.. Unfortunately, I don't have ceiling clearance to lift
Jeep all way up and use my tall transmission jack (I use it for sedans)

I was thinking about getting transmission jack attachement from HF (to
use on a floor jack) but I probably won't do this job again and didn't
want to throw $50 away.

I can lift car to about 4-5 feet from the ground....

Looks like tranny weight 90 pounds, so I thought 2 guys can easily take
it on hands.

Thanks for suggestions, I may use that trick with a rope. But after I
buy this simple supplies (rope, etc...) I will spend close to what I
spend for transm jack attachement :)

Well I recon (lift and all!). even at 4 feet you can sit and get'er out no
problem. You wont need the rope trick with 2 of you holding on.
