Using a Floor Jack as a Transmission Jack?

I've done it for years on "just" the floor jack.


LOL...You are a mechanical animal though. Lesser men like me need something to hold them on the jack. When they slip off the jack it’s a real PITA. I bent the threads on the 3-4 shift shaft one time not that long ago and trashed a brand new 3-4 slider. And the best part was everything else was done and all I had to do was hook up the shifter.

It had to come back out. That’s when I made a platform so I could bolt the gearbox to so that couldn’t happen again.

And yes, I’m old.
