6-Speed Transmission Re-Mount

Hello gang-
I have haters already, but whatever-
To install the 6 speed Transaxle, I am doing something revolutionary.
1. go to hardware store and buy a few 100mm bolt that will fit the bellhousing.
Cut the heads off and grind a straight edge on the cut end as to allow you to turn with a screwdriver at the end.
2. Mount stud one at 10 o'clock and another at 3. Just a couple of turns into the engine side.
3. Raise up the transmission on your REGULAR floor jack and begin to align the holes. Pause there.
4. Take 2 pieces of 12 inch dog chain, 100 lb strength, and thread the regular transmission bracket bolts thru the chain and eye of the transmission holes, also on the transmission mount top, both sides.
5. You are now locked in and secure to do everything alone, easy peezy.
6. With jack that isnt doing much now still there, align your bolts studs on the case and slide in. The chains guarantee no falling disaster.
27 seconds and I was in
Enjoy
