It is a good video but he made a couple of things a little harder to do than necessary. When rotating the coupling sleeve to undo the bolts, just reach up and put the trans in neutral with the linkage on the trans and have someone push the clutch pedal in. Rotate the collar by hand thought the larger inspection hole. Also I don't bother with removing the two top mounting bolts. I just remove the entire crossmember (it's not that big) by undoing the two bolts out at the ends that are MUCH easier to get at. It makes taking the top mounting bolts out a LOT easier. Plus, really no need to remove the exhaust if you're not dropping the torque tube. The transmission is not that heavy and can be easily man handled into and out of the vehicle on a regular rolling floor jack. I do like the little trolley set up he made for his pit though.
