Guess I was stupider back then ... I once changed the clutch in a 60
passenger White bus by myself, with it parked on a dirt road.  No idea what
that transmission weighed, but it had to be seriously heavy as it was cast
iron; considerably larger than a TR; and in front of a huge flathead
straight-8 (mounted backwards in the chassis).    Rented a jack of some
sort, and put down a sheet of plywood for it to slide on.  

Fortunately the bus was plenty tall enough to work under without a jack, as
I didn't have anything even faintly resembling jackstands big enough to hold
it up !
