Directly From the Turbo Diesel Register: "From my experience (1 '97, 1 '98 and my '98 many times) I find that it makes things a bit easier to actually jack the front of the engine up slightly to get the transmission angle right so it comes out without hitting the firewall. Of course this is with a 6 speed. By default the engine actually tilts forward when the transmission is removed so no support is needed under the back."

Confirming, I have pulled a 92 5speed 2x4 and a 2001 6sp 4x4 and the above is true. No support needed.
