Good job. In a certain way I guess because the first 8yrs and 3 different places I worked I was the sole mech, but I kinda prefer working by myself. The last semi same job I did was the trans and transfer case in my Nissan 4x4. I ended up getting a HF scissor trans jack and modifying the head to tilt fwd and back. At the time they were only $59, now they are $99. In a certain way the scissor was easier because it took all the over shoot that always seemed to happen with the hydraulic jacks. I only used the jack once and it ended up getting left behind but it worked excellent for what I was doing and like all thing HF it was cheap and I could mod the heck outta it and not feel bad. YMMV.
