Actually, I have one of these:

The problem is I can't jack the car up high enough to roll it under the car with the tranny on it. So, I have to slide the tranny under, roll the jack under and then wrestle with the tranny to get it up on the jack. Once I get it on the jack, I am all set, but it takes forever to do it. And, it has been a while since I actually did a tranny, so I forgot how I did it. After an hour or so wrestling with it, I remembered how I did it. But by then I was pretty PO'd, and lost my momentum. I'll be buttoning that up today if I have time. With all of this snow coming, I want to do a little work on the truck and plow. I think that is a little more important today.
I have a better idea for the tranny jack, I just havent got the time to put this together. But when I do I am getting one of these: http://eagleequip.com/page/EE/PROD/LI-SS/MS9000 .....or something like it. I have to modify my garage door track first.

I'll give you whistle tomorrow.

11.3@123mph on 195/75/14" whitewalls. Yes, 195s!
11.2 on the big giant slicks. What's the point? Maybe I'll go back to the whitewalls. They are lighter and have less rolling resistance.
