I take four long bolts, they don't need to be hardened, just the proper size, and cut off the heads, clean up the cut ends, and use them as alignment Studs. When doing this job in the vehicle you may only be able to use the lower two bolt positions because of available space to get the studs out. Also, you may need to size the Bolt/Studs for the available space under the truck, one step at a time... !
By using the two lower bolt positions, you reduce the possibility of the front of the trans dropping and misaligning the clutch disc.
I have found this method to work both in and out of the vehicle, harder in the vehicle but it will work with a little length adjustments.
Good Luck !
