It's dirty too.
Just start unbolting everything on the passengers side of your car, you'll get it eventually.
Start by draining the tranny, removing the axles, and disconnecting the shift linkage.
Go ahead and go to sears now and get an 8mm punch.
Then disconned the 2 sensors, jack up the motor under the oil pan, remove the 3 mounts connected to the tranny, then the bolts holding the tranny to the motor, then kick the living **** out of it til it comes off.
I tell you though, if you can find a redneck down the street that will do it for around $100, it's worth it to save yourself the trouble.
