pulling the 700r4

So ive searched for a couple days now and cant find a thread with all the steps on pulling the trans so im trying to put all the steps together by myself, but ive caught a snag.

So far I have:

1. put car on jack stands as high and safely possible
2. unbolt and remove dipstick tube
3. Place wooden block between torque arm and floor pan
4. remove torque arm from trans
5. disconnect TTC wire connector
6. disconnect TV cable
7. disconnect oil cooler lines
8. unbolt and remove bell housing cover
9. mark relationship of the drive shaft to pinion flange. remove retaining bolts
10. remove drive shaft and cap the back of the trans to prevent spill

That is as far as i can get without being clueless on what to do. What are the steps unbolt the trans from the engine and can you go a little bit more into detail. The pictures ive seen just show people sticking their hand up in the trans area.

Unbolt the torque convertor (3 bolts)

Support the transmission with a flat board and a jack, and remove the crossmember. 4 bolts to the frame, 1 nut on the trans mount.

Finally remove six bolts from bellhousing.

You'll have to pull the transmission back and wiggle it to get it off the dowel pins. Gently let it down and try not to let the torque convertor fall off.
