how do you drop a 97 transmission?

[flivesay2]

Anyone have the tranny removal procedure? Used haynes--removed everything they said but cannot get the tranny to drop out. Removed all motor mounts, shoved the engine all the way against the passenger fender well but still do not have room to to get the end cover (driver side) past the frame. I don't think I have to drop the whole &^% front frame (not according to haynes) nor do I think I should have to remove the end cover. I would hate to remove and replace the tranny with the end cover off. Is there a secret I'm not aware of or do I just keep wiggling and hope the tranny shrinks--

any help or knowledge would be gratefully accepted!!

Hi, Suspend the engine with the proper fixture, Now drop the sub frame, And low and behold the trans comes out, You are welcome, Clay.....
