When I loosened the engine mount bolts to the Frame It would not go up high enough to allow the two horizontal ZF mounts to clear the clevis ears of the frame.  If I tried to lift it further it just lifted the entire car.  In your picture it looks like you removed the three nuts on either side of the ZF to the mounting AL casting that goes into the frame clevis, is this what I should be doing?  I was trying to lift the entire ZF with the Al mountings over the clevis.

the zf, cut boards to fit undert eh back of the block, then let some 
pressure off the lift so it was only carrying the weight of the ZF:
