Just trans was easy for me. Too many hoses and such involved with pulling the motor.

pulling a motor isn't hard when u have the right tools. I have never done a clutch while the engine has been in the car. I don't know how hard it is. But I know it is very simple when it is out.

transmission is simple to drop.
pull axles out
remove tranny mounts, lower engine a few inches (so it drops on an angle) then unbolt transmission from block (just make sure you have a transmission stand or someone under the tranny if it falls.

its not hard to remove an engine tho.
eaiser to install the clutch with engine out of car.
