I'd head to the junk yard with my tools and pull the bolts. That way you have the bolts and know what tools you'll need. You will need the torque converter bolts, trans to engine bolts as well as u joint bolts. Also, you'll need the transmission to support bolts as well as the support to frame bolts. I'd leave one or two trans to engine bolts in so the unit doesn't fall out and just get some new ones.
