Its relatively easy. I had never done it before and I finished taking the front clip off in about 2 hours. My suggestion would be to pull the front clip in one piece, that way you don't have to worry so much about lining everything back up later.

I'd take all of the stering/suspension off before you remove it - makes for a lighter and safer package.

Leave your tires on it, jack the body up and use a floorjack back at the tranny mount and CAREFULLY roll her right out!!

Ah my bad. I didn't realize you were that far along. When I removed mine I left all of it together. I put a dolley underneath the transmission, cut the bolts (they were too rusty) and tie a rope to the front. I then had someone steady the back while I yanked it out.
