Ok, the best way I've found to do this after taking out about half a dozen trannys is to ditch the tranny jack and jack stands and get that thing on the ground. With the car in the air, slide the tranny underneath in the general location of where it sits. Then slowly lower the car with a floor jack. It works best with two people, one adjusting the tranny so it doesn't get caught and another to work the jack, but can also be done alone as I've had to before. It is a little tricky, but angling the tranny just the right way, the front diff housing will clear the crossmember/unibody. Then get the car as close the ground as you can w/o setting it on the ground and you should only have about an inch or two to lift it over the flywheel and onto the block. Give it a shot, you won't regret it.
