Hi there,

This is not normally a job i would recommend a novice home mechanic to attempt, you really need the car up on a hoist and use a transmission jack and an engine support to aid in the removal, also removing the drive shafts are often very difficult, get a mechanic to do this,you also need to get the flywheel re machined and be able to re fill the transmission with oil.
