Patrick - I don't care what they do say about you, you do come up with some good ideas now and then. In this case you jogged my memory that I used my 4-post lift as a sort of jib crane to lift my GTX's 175 lb transmission down off of the transmission jack. I might be able to make that work again or maybe just fab up a little rolling hoist.
Hi Cobra - good point about draining the fluid - a Toploader does have a bottom plug to make that easy.
