Done it years ago mate, went to pick up a M20 4spd out of a Torana and when i got there it was still in the car, the guy was stuffing around then his mates showed up and wanted to get on the piss so i got them to tip it on its side, coupla bolts later i just walked up to the car and lifted it off easy as - grabbed the rear sway bar while i was at it:thumbsup:

He'd been crawling around underneath for ages, his mates thought it was a great joke some dude showin up and plucking it out in minutes

Yeah man, nice bit of wood inbetween the jack and pan VERY carefully ballanced and take it nice and slow mate, steady as she goes, constantly checking its not snagging/rubbing on anything.

or

put a matress beside the car and tip it on its side :whistling:whistling:whistling not!
sorry couldnt resist that, late and too much coffee
