Looking for encouragement.

I have access to a lift at my brother's shop but he's trying to run a business, I may be in the way there; ideally, if it that's where I need to be, tell me.
I'm also not as young (61) as the last time I pulled one, about 20 years ago.
Now that I'm retired I thought why not, I've got plenty of time, from what I've read it looks fairly simple.

Any tips would be appreciated. If I have to do this at home on jack stands how high does it need to be?

I think a small pump up session from you cats will be just enough to push me into doing this myself.

Thanks also to ALL that have Served to protect this Great Country.

I removed and reinstalled mine a few years ago to change my clutch. As I recall, it was very easy and only took a few hours and that was with me on my back in my driveway. I only needed help from my neighbor to line up the tranny during the installation because that ZF is one heavy tranny. I wish I had had access to a lift, it would have been even easier.
