That is a good job!

And I am glad you got it out. It all adds up to experience. Pulling a transmission is heavy, greasy, nasty and kind of unrewarding. Yes you got it out, but it is better back in. Putting it in has a lot of the same moves, but it has a degree of difficulty a little higher then removing it. Really not much to line up in pulling it out - just keep it on the jack and out and down. So if you enjoyed pulling it, you will probably will be happy to re-install one somewhere down the road. If you take your time, and do it right, it can be done.
