Best way to install Transmission

I dropped my new engine in today. I tried it with the transmission attached first and I just couldn't get it in so I removed the transmission and it went in fairly easily. But now I have the task of getting my transmission in with my car on jackstands in my driveway.

What's the best / easiest way to install a transmission (auto) in a driveway on jackstands?
