Flaps & James,
Thx for your thoughts. Looking at the Quick Jack.

Thinking I could build a structure beneath it. Then using conventional hyd jack, raise each side and slide the assembly in place. Once level and on the stand at ~10" height, I could raise the 22" of the lift jack for a total elevation of ~32" Would that be sufficient to remove the engine & trans together? See any flaws here?
