Jack the car up by the middle jack point, just under the rear half of the door, put the two stands under the front and rear jack points and lower.  Repeat on the other side. If the car is very low, drive it up on some pieces of 2x4 under each tire first to gain 1-1/2" more clearance:).


You will need to get the car at least 21" high measuring from the rear jack point to the ground to get the trans out from under the car.  22" is better:).  Having the car pitched downward in the front is not a good idea IMO.  If the drive train is not somewhat level, R & R of the trans will just be more difficult, especially the replacement fo the trans to get the mainshaft aligned.  You MUST have a good pilot shaft for these dual plate clutches.  Those cheap crap plastic ones suck for this clutch install.  Remember to pull the clutch fork out of position or the trans will not come out.


HTH,
