The transmission bolts to the side of the engine, and is in front of the driver position. You should get the service manual for the car before you start a major job like a tranny replace. The actual Ford Service manuals often turn up on ebay.com, but the Chiltons and Haynes manuals are okay, just not as much detail.
My next advice would be to read the part of the manual dealing with what you want to do, and do it standing in front of the car, and looking for each item the manual talks about.
For a tranny remove/replace I use a simple hoist I made up from a cheap Chinese hand winch, and a large A frame; like a sawhorse but taller and wider. I had the front of the car jacked up, with heavy wooden blocks (6 by 6 and 4 by 4) under the car to support it just behind the front wheels.
And before you jack it up, you need to loosen up the hub nuts and the wheel lug nuts on both of the front wheels too. Because you have to take the axles out as part of tranny remove/replacement.
Good Luck... its easier than installing an extra bathroom in a house, though dirtier.
