I would try to get an impact wrench because the above method puts excessive stress on the tranny internal components, and can damage the gears as well as thjew flywheel ring gear if the tranny is in the car.
If both of the trannys are out, you can either use an impact wrench on the nut while holding the flange with a big strap wrench, or as Volvo recommends, a flange holding tool that bolts into one of the driveshaft bolt holes and locks the flange against the OD housing. You can make one up with a steel plate and a big bolt welded to one side of the plate.
Removal can be done easily with the impact wrench, but torqueing of the nut during instal should be done with a torque wrench or adjustable torque setting for the impact wrench.
