To remove the automatic transmission from your car you will need a basic wrench set, socket set, jack stands, floor jack, and a transmission jack as pictured below.
Raise both the front and rear of your car and support it on good quality jack stands.
Remove the linkage/cables for the shifter and throttle valve/kick down.
Remove the vacuum line for the modulator if so equipped.
