I throw the cases together, put the trans in and then attach the cases. Its hard but you can do all that on your own if you have to. Just need a couple sinch straps.
As for any tricks while you are out... cut the hole in the floor for the extra case. Replace the t-case output seal. Put the front d-shaft flange in the back and the back flange in the front.... since you will be using the cv in back and non cv in front. Also, if you remove the cv-sheild from the case, shim it with a washer when you put it back together. I've heard of problems developing if you don't. Can't think of anything else. If your donor case is 79-80 grind off the extra splines on the ticase input or it will destroy your w56.
