Mounts are the easiest bit, you can see them and they're just regular nuts.
There are loads of hoses and wiring you need to disconnect and label first.

Yeah amongst other things. Heater hoses, earth strap, starter motor, alternator, clutch cable, gear linkage, shafts etc. etc.
Nothing you won't spot while you're doing it, but its not just unplug and lift!
