There is a special tool available to get round this problem, although the price will put many people off. Combined with a decent transmission jack it makes the task relatively easy, and it is not difficult to make an equivalent. It can be made from wood if easier.

I've got the dimensions to fab one up in steel if anyone wants. It's in one of my military AESP's

I remembered this thread as i was removing my gearbox/ transfer box today. Some people said split them and others said remove them together, i decided to remove them as one unit. I used an engine crane through the passenger door and i also have a pit which makes the job easier. Despite that it was still hard work removing a very heay, unwieldy unit. They will be going back in tomorrow and i can see that re-fitting the 2 boxes as one unit will be much more difficult than removal, so the boxes will definitely be going back in as 2 seperate units.
