The PP Tech Article advises using a furniture dolly. I was able to get one for $16 at Harbor Freight Tools. It's as low as it can be over wheels that can handle the weight. Engine and tranny. worked well. 6-ton jacks and a small 1/2" plywood piece under each jackstand. The jackstands were $20/pair, also at Harbor Freight. This method worked for me. I also put a piece of wood under the belly pan and firewall just to be sure. I'm not going to die under a car. I felt very secure about the jackstand suppoort under the torsion tubes in spite of the height.

Finding the balance point of the engine/tranny was the "iff"iest part, until I found it.
