I have had the trans out a number of times with poly mounts. I use about 4 feet of extensions and it isn't really that bad... well with the car on a lift. I've never bashed my floor or anything. Hardest bolt for me is the torque arm top clam shell bolt, I hate trying to get that in and out.
same. About 3’ of extensions to get a decent angle past the tail shaft and some massaging of the universal (swivel) attached to a short 15mm socket. It’s not “easy” with poly mounts, but it’s also not hard. Just some trial/error, and sometimes swearing and throwing things when the laws of physics defy our need to correctly align on the bolt head lol
a small impact gun helps a LOT as well. If you don’t own a 150$ battery powered impact then I’d suggest get one

I have UMI solids and have to loosen the k-member bolts to remove the t56 and to stab it, especially the latter. I can actually pull the trans without loosening the kmember bolts, but no way in hell was I going to get it stabbed without loosening the bolts.
