Have the same truck an '80 K10, converted to a 4 speed, when I put the transmission in, I installed it as a unit, crossmember in all, using a floor jack, in the dirt in one of our equipment yards, that trans and transfer case together was heavy, but it was not too bad to put in, by myself, thinking about this now, working under it without a trans jack or something similar, pulling the engine off the mounts or rigging through the cab, still have to align that shaft or keep it lined up, a helper would be a big plus, I can't imagine doing this without just dropping the trans, reverse of what I did when I installed it. That bronze pilot bearing sure is buried in there. Still hard to believe I did that entire job alone, seemed to be do-able as a unit, no way I could have hefted either of those seperately and still get em set. Do recall the auto and standard cross members were different too. Like you said too, big difference in what you can do in what amount of time as age creeps on us, used to work off a creeper and or underneath quite often, now it's a little tougher, takes more time etc.
