Bryce, when I pulled the engine and transmission on my 51 200, I had difficulty clearing the radiator brace, so I cut it with a angle grinder with a cut off blade, and then welded it back in place when the engine was reinstalled.

I agree that it is much easier to remove and reinstall the transmission when it's out of the car. I put the transmission on a furniture dolly and the engine hanging from a lift so that I could push both of them around as needed.
