Replacing B2 Piston, cant get enough room to install it

I am replacing my B2 piston on my transmission. The original one was easy to remove because it was in about 4 pieces. Getting the new one in is much more difficult.

I have tried jacking up the engine, prying the tranny, and a few other things. I am worried that i will have to remove the motor mounts and engine shocks. I really dont want to do that because i already went through that hell when I replaced them a year or two ago.

What has worked for you, or do you have any easier ideas?
