We are going to have the tranny out when we do this because I am going to replace the clutch while I'm at it. It slipped a few times at K2 so might as well get it all done at one time. I assume we will assemble everything on the bench and install everything at the same time.
Subscribed. Hot Dam!
That is a great idea on the clutch. That pilot bearing is fun, fun at times. I actually have a slide hammer that is modified to pull those bearings. I used to have to do this kid of stuff myself before I met Pat 
When I did Tranny/transfer all at once with my FJ-55, I used a good tranny jack for tranny and transfer and lowered the back of the motor at the rear with a cherry picker from the top. Got it at a good angle and stabbed it all.
I would pick up some new motor mounts. That seems like a very common thing that goes with age since they are rubber. At least get a new passenger side one.

I am digging that mount for the Orion case !!
talk to Georg, JEff
Jeff, one thing that will need to be done that will interfere with a full-on pit crew swap out is the pressure plate needing to be turned. (Like brake rotors)
May consider taking it all down on a Friday and lining up someone that will schedule you to turn it on a Saturday morning or friday pm.
It is a heavy bitch, I have always taken them to truck places to have it done versus a car place.
