It's just a bit confusing because Bentley's and Dempster's both outline the procedure for a separate drop, which entails certain unplugs and undoes which may not be necessary when they are dropped together.
Oh well "Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead!"[/QUOTE]
They are actually doing the work so they can take pictures, but they aren't going to do it twice to show both methods.

@pjq
You know, if mine was a manual transmission, I'd probably do the same. The tip seems to have more hoses and lines and doodads, torque converters and... to deal with. So the brace is out and I'm about ready for the drop. 
@BYprodriver
So, if I'm successful, I'll give a resume of the procedure!

Alright, ahead on two ... steady as she goes ...all hands standby for lowering of the torpedo!
It looks like you have a few days of warmer temperatures (-6) ahead. That will help make the task a little more comfortable.
I got tired and cold of sitting/laying on a cold concrete floor so I went to the local hardware store and bought a 1.5 inch thick sheet of rigid insulation board (2x8 pink or blue board), what a difference.

Do not forget to loosen the torque converter bolts before lowering the engine and transmission assembly!
Other than that, its fairly straight forward.

Could you clarify this? Not quite sure why I need to do this.
