If this "transmission saddle" can be bought locally, I'll get it!


Walmart shows them but I imagine it would be something they would have
to order before you find out how well it works with your floor jack.

The question is whether to get that or this:

They have more expensive transmission jacks but this is expected to be a
one-time use so it doesn't need to be super sturdy but just sturdy enough.


I'd definitely go with the adapter if you can find one that will work
with your floor jack. It would be about half the cost and from the
sounds of the HF reviews easier to use.
