Support the transmission, I took off the the cover from the floorboard and used a 2x4 and a short chain to support it. Remove the 4 transmission bolts, then the 2 bolts for the bell housing mounts and the front motor mounts. Removing the radiator will make it much easier to get the engine out I would pull the engine and tranny while they're bolted together, especially on an open driveline bigbolt. Much easier to get the tranny stabbed back into the clutch with the engine out of the truck. You would of course have to disconnect the u-joint at the rear of the transmission and remove the top cover and shifter of the tranny. Definitely remove the radiator, and possibly the radiator support.
