Apart from  your own proposals, you  could also remove  the drive shaft.
It's   only eight nuts and  bolts  (13mm, sometimes  12mm, open wrenches
only).  Before unbolting you should mark the rotational alignment of all
the flanges on  both ends,  so you are   able to re-assemble  everything
exactly as it was before.

With drive shaft removed, you could then simply pull her or use a dolly.

I hope this helps.

Sincerely
 Rainer
