is it a manual or automatic. if it is a manual it is relativly simple . first take off the tires and then diconect thes strut from the hub. don't forget to take off the cv axle nut witch is a 32mm. nex tap the cv axle out with a rubber mallet so you don't mess up the threads or mushroom the end of it. do this for both sides. nex go through and disconnect all of the electiric connections from the trany. then take off the bottom support brackets. the first one goes from side to side and the second one goes forward to aft. after disconnecting the bottom mounts and brackets, disconnect the shifter from the trany. pull the drivers side cv axle out and for the passanger one it will have three bolts that hold it in place and they are located near the oil filter. once that is done, start pulling out the bolts that hold the trany to the motor. they should be either 13mm or 14mm. after those are all out" even the three bolts for the starter" take out the three bolts for the top trany mount."17mm" , once those are out take a pry bar and stick it in between the motor and the trany and wiggle the pry bar back and forth. it should come apart but the wiggle the whole trany to get it off of the piolet shaft and then your trany should be taken out. i have done this 6 times and it has become second nature to me.
