I have that same engine hoist, just lifting an idi with it makes me nervous, I don't think I could do engine/trans/t-case all together.

I always install them with the trans installed, just pull the shifter tower off and dangle the angle just right, you’ll need to have the crossmember off. If you’re lift isn’t meant to handle the weight, don’t attempt it.
Every time I've pulled an IDI from one of my van, I've had to disconnect the tranny. With just the engine, it's like trying to give birth to a rhinoceros. I can't imagine the PITA it would be to pull with the tranny connected.
You're right on that one!
