I don't recommend removing/installing the transmission in pieces. Yes, it can be done, but those who choose to do it are in the minority. I know someone who removed his in pieces. However, he ended up pulling the engine and mating the rebuilt transmission to the engine to insure alignment, and the engine and transmission were installed as a unit.
