Of course remove battery, the air box, the axles, the starter, the clutch slave cylinder, the shift rod. Then support the engine and remove the top motor mount on the driver's side and remove the rear lower engine mount.
Remove the trans bolts (note the location as you remove the nine bolts) and pull the trans out.
Check for hot spots and cracking on the flywheel, I recommend resurfacing for light surface problems and replacing it for obvious defects.
When installing, two step the torque of the pressure plate first to 14 ft/lb and then 16-29 ft/lb.
The upper trans to engine 5 bolts should be torqued to 29-36 ft/lb and the lower 4 bolts should be torqued to 22-30 ft/lb.
