Hi,

Removing and replacing the transmission is not too hard, but you will be working under the vehicle with heavy components, so be careful. Check out the diagrams (Below).

To get you started, here is a link that explains how it's done in general. Use this as a guide. Note: The link shows the procedure being done on a manual transmission. An automatic transmission is a little different, but at the same time, very similar.

As far as the removal and replacement of the transmission, I attached several pics below. The pics include the directions and pictures specific to your vehicle for removal and replacement. Check out the diagrams (Below). Let us know what happens and please upload pictures or videos of the problem.
