or have 3' of extension and lean the motor/trans back on the motor mounts

Got it out today! I had all the bolts out I just needed to jack the trans and the motor at the same time to loosen things up. After five or six jackings (LOL) it came free. Thanks Guys

That's how I do it. With the Radix on top of the motor, going in from top wasn't really an option.

Glad to see she's out!

Yep. I have a 48" but it was still a pita on my truck (didn't have the truck high enough probably).

If you go with the vic jr you won't even have to pull off the manifold to go from the top -- a 15mm racheting crescent will do the trick
