Drop or Pull?

So I might be taking possession of my 89 F250 again, and it needs a rear main seal. It's a Super Cab 4x4, 460, C6 at factory height...which is decently high. I'm debating how to get at the RMS, to drop the transmission or to pull the motor. Just thought I'd toss it out to the group and see which way experience thinks is better.

Access to tools and facilities is not a problem.
