Default CLutch install... trying to lower diff help!!

I have gotten to the point where I need to lower the transmission, and I am wondering whether I should lower the whole rear cradle with it still attached to the rear axle/tranny. The thing is i have 4 low pro jacks and one tranny jack, so only the tranny jack reaches the frame or tranny. So should i detach the frame from the rear and lower it seperately, or support the frame and lower it all together? Thank You!
