Dropping motor/trans/suspension as a unit

I was wondering if anybody had dropped evrything all at once, I need to replace a cv boot, check my clutch, replace the rear shocks & sways, and do a couple other small tasks. I was thinking it would be easier to just drop everything, fix it, put it all back as a unit, please let me know of any expereince doing this.

thanks

thom

Looking at your list, I would just remove the tranny, much less work, plus you do not need to disturb the power steering, the A/C, the fuel injection, the engine wiring harness, or cooling system.
