This transmission jack is the best for installing doors available at Harbor Freight for about $80 I bought mine over 15 years ago for use on the race car than found out how well it worked for installing doors.

Set the car at the right height and balance if off your knee. Once you get used to doing it without help you actually prefer no help. I did some pins and bushings on an 05 Silverado recently, no help, no jack, now those loaded doors are heavy!

I called my ole buddies this morning and ask for some tips.. ( Barry and Aaron ), they got me lined out.. thank you both
Check out the decklid.. It is bowed up.. I know they all have a crown to them, but this one seems bowed up pretty bad. It does not fit up with the quarters at all.
I may have to stand on it to flatten it out..reminds me of Chad standing on a hood I think it was
