Does anybody anywhere close to Oklahoma City have one of these to loan out?

My engine is apparently T.U. or very close to it and I'm sure I couldn't find a shop to do the change out without having access to this device.

Carl, at least two ways. Out the top. Out the bottom. In your case, out the
bottom kinda makes more sense. Gotta jack it up high, take the final drive
with the tranny. Support the engine from above, once the tranny is clear,
then lower the engine onto a creeper, and out she comes.

Aw Geez Carl! That's a heck of a late Birthday present! Sorry to hear this.

While I can't offer any advice, I will be watching from the sidelines and
providing moral support.

Okay, my engine and transmission decided to crap out on the way home from
Las Vegas on Friday.
