Exclamation Is there a way to install the engine and transmission at the same time?

Having problems linking the engine to the transmission. Only way I have swapped motors is by taking out the transmission and engine out at the same time. But after getting the bumper and all that off I could not figure out how to remove the last frame to make it possible for the transmission to come out still attached to the engine. Looking for one of two possible solutions.
How to link the two together
How to remove the engine frame structure stuff
I have tried it with the torque converter attached to both the engine and transmission.

I have a 4.0 engine in my 2003 Ranger it's blown will be pulling out tomorrow but you need to disconnect it from the tranny is the best way to do it if you want to remove the tranny to have to take that out separate from bottom last thing for me to disconnect is my motor mounts tomorrow and then we'll get the cherry picker and take out my engine check out the clutch and then start transferring stuff over all we had to take out was radiator and the hood PM me if you have any questions
