They use an engine jack stand instead. So does another local dealer I have been to as they were doing a transmission replacement.

I would never buy one, but I might fabricate one. I think it would keep the trans \ engine seperation a little smoother by taking off the bind between the two. Of course the same effect could be done with two floor jacks, one on the engine and one on the trans, but I only own one floor jack......
