Did it from the bottom and we ended up having to pick the front of the car so high it became very dangerous. We should have just pulled it out the top - just didn't want to remove the hood or risk screwing up body parts. Keep in mind this is also on an AWD turbo car with a VERY crammed engine bay. Either direction is a bear. Maxima, I would try pulling it out the top with a cherry picker and leave the tranny in the car (supported of course) but I have never pulled a Maxima engine.
