For future reference. I always lower the car back down on it's wheels when I'm pulling an engine and it comes out the front with ease. I don't like to lift that weight above the fenders.

Good job.
Bet you were busy while doing it yourself.

I'm probably going to have to do mine solo, I think I'm going to disconnect the harness and leave it so there's one less thing to worry about as the engine comes out.

Pull the harness from the engine and lay it over the fender, it will save you a bit of time and cussing.
