Best way to install motor/trans?

Need help on how to attack engine install. I pulled to motor/trans together from the top after removing tcase etc. Is this the best way to put it back in the car? Motor/trans mated, then wrestle tcase back in? Thanks

Maybe leave the t case in place and have it pushed to the side while you drop the motor and trans from the top? Can unbolt and bolt in the t case while the subframe is in place.
