You need to loosen and lower the sub frame a bit, which is not that difficult when the car is up in the air on a hoist but could be a challenge if working just with jack stands.
The rear of transmission needs to be supported when the subframe is loose since the sub is support of rear motor mount.
It's about 3-4 hour to do just a straight swap.
