Tips to pull a Tranny out of a GMC Jimmy- Stuck on Trailer?

All-
Ok ladies and gents. I'm currently gutting a 1997 GMC Jimmy. Sadly, it met its maker shortly after a new Transmission had been put in it by a professional shop here locally.. it has approximately 20,000 miles on it. I offered it on CL in the part-out ad saying:
"Jimmy is on the trailer.. and cannot be removed off the trailer. Tranny is available for $200 bucks- You Pull"



I have 2 people who are willing to take a shot at it and want it.. and now comes the "Umm how do we pull it with it being on the trailer?" "Uhhh Do you have a cherry picker?"
I have stated in the ad that "You bring tools.. You Pull.. I can assist.. but you pull the part"

Truck is sitting on its rotors and drums on a set of steel wheels.. Alum rims that were on it have long-ago been cored. So the next time this will come off my trailer- is when a big green claw scoops it up and flicks it into a pile of shred.

Soooooo. I've got $200 bucks riding on this.. wondered if anyone may have any tips, ideas or suggestions about how to pull this Tranny with the vehicle being on my car hauler?

If it is NOT possible.. I can understand and will console myself with that fact!
Thanks in advance all!

This is what she looks like at the moment:

What I would do (and actually just did on a car) is jack up the front as high as possible and secure it real well on jacks stands/blocks, then remove any bracing that might be in the way underneath, disconnect the flex plate-torque converter bolts (should be 3) and any wires that you see going to the tranny, then get a board on top of a hydraulic jack to support the transmission and then you can remove the bell housing bolts that secure the engine to the transmission, it should be disconnected now and you can lower it right down. Now the car was a little different and I had to drop the whole engine/transmission assembly with the subframe. But being a Blazer it is obviously rear wheel drive so it has a longitudinally mounted engine and it really "shouldn't" be that hard to just drop the transmission. It will be a little tougher to deal with if it is 4x4 since then you have to pull the transfer case but you can get a decent core price for that as well. Once you have it separated from the vehicle a couple guys on either end of it shouldn't have to much trouble putting in the bed of a truck. Here's a more in depth write up that should walk you right through it:4L60E Removal

Better Pic as the Sun has gone down a bit. Thanks Gents For ALL your tips. I actually found the SAME website.. Hoping I can email it to these dudes and let them know what they are in for! They'll earn that tranny.. but $200 is better than $1000!!!

Do it he same way I would do it sitting on the ground, jack up the front as high as I need it to e and go to town on it, it's going to the junk yard next so who cares if anything else is messed up in the process of removing te trans. That should be an easy pull, hour or two tops.

Use a tractor with a front end loader bucket and hook a chain to the motor/trans package, pull the wires, hoses and jerk it out.

Well no one came through.. no worries.. no one got hurt either! Was A-Ok with letting it go.. $200 bucks wasn't worth someone dying on my trailer trying to "figure it out" As they say.... "NEXT!"
