Just like the title asks, is there a trick or certain way to rotate something or jack something up a certain way to get the auto trans in and out? I fought removing my donor trans for quite a bit before it hap hazardly twisting and falling to the ground, definitely not what id call "technique"
I can have a manual trans out of my car in a half hour to 45 minutes starting with a ruining car, and can put it completely back together in about the same (but i don't have a lot of engine bay clutter like an oem car or even someone running MAF)
But i know exactly how to hook a chain, lost out at the prefect angle and can have a bell housing bolt in not 5 minutes sheet lifting the trans off the ground, but the auto is a tight fit, I'm accepting any and all pointers greatfully. As this job is a PITS
