FYI that looks like the same lift I used to pull the motor from the bottom. Car is pretty light without the K member/engine/tranny/front suspention still siting on the floor.
Harbor freight 1 ton lift worked fine. Infact it had a tuffer time picking up the v6/tranny as a units then it did picking up the front of the car.

just a little update. I got home from school last night, and my new transmission was waiting for me:
check out the ghetto packing job lol:
here's a pic of the (almost)-finished interior:
I also switched out the stock taillights for the tinted ones that are on the '94. I'll try to get better pics as soon as I can.

forgot to add one thing: the reason we needed a new transmission.
notice the GAPING hole in the bellhousing. The crack goes all the way around to the other side. I have no idea how it happened, we just found it like that when we dropped the trans before removing the engine.

got the exhaust manifolds off yesterday and got the headers in place (that was a pain, let me tell you ). Should be getting the trans and torque converter installed today, and we're getting gaskets for the headers tonight so we can install them correctly.
