since your going back together and not needing to come apart do this. install engine from the top. On the subframe there are 3 bolts on each side remove both middle bolts. then loosen the front bolts about 15 threads. then loosen the rear bolts all the way to where only a few threads are holding, at this point the cradle will be at its full tilt position to allow much easier access for installing the trans.

On a side note if anyone ever noticed why the front and rear bolt are so long and why the front bolt is a 2 threaded piece design was to specifically do this procedure.

When coming apart removing the cradle can be easy, but i would have disconnected the lower ball joint and let the knuckles hang.
