kevo wats ur plan? dropping the motor completley? or just unbolting one side and jacking it up? i think that would be the best way to go at it without a lift.

set the K Member on 4x4's nice and stable. take off the wiring harness(15 minutes) disconnect all hoses and cables(another 15-30 minutes) remove master cylinder and brake lines to the front wheels. losen steering shaft off of rack. remove all 4 bolts on each strut tower. remove Torque Arm from tranny let it rest on the floor. tranny crossmemner and drive shaft. shifter cable/tranny wiring(should have been done with for mentioned wiring harness. remove the 3 bolts per side on the K member. drive shaft and use a Engine Hoist to lift the CAR off the MOTOR. and then you just work on it on a 5 gallon bucket. bolt em all in minust y pipe and lower car back down. THATS the way to do it with out a lift. looks like alot of work. BUT its alot less frustrating and less time consuming then putting them in WITH the motor in the car. and chances are you'll break less shit. like harness connectors and spark plugs etc.

kevo i think pizza boy is actually right on this one. sounds a lot easier that way then the way we did it on mine... i can help u out some too, i already have taken off all the tranny stuff when we did our tranny swap so i will have some expirence on that small stuff. dude if u want we can do it in my garage and u can keep it in there as long as u need to. i can just park my car outside

theres also a bunch of writeups on how to drop the motor from the bottom we could use. and maybe pizza can come up and help us for the big stuff... hell we could take him out to dinner or something for his troubles

i also could get an engine hoist for a weekend too

i want some expirence on dropping a motor for when the time comes for me to drop mine
