Good work there M8

You going to bolt the box / diff ect up to the engine and lift the whole lot back in complete?
That's how i've done mine before and got to say it's deffo the way trolly jack under the rear of the box and engine crane at the front.
No messing with the front prop or anything like that just lift it into place and stick in the bolts for the X-member / G/box craddle and struts and its job done

Best of luck with the rebuild.
