Drop the back of the trans and get ~3' worth of extensions and a good wobble socket set.

Not necessarily. It can be a challenge to get them out together without pulling the hood and radiator support.

If you have an engine hoist that can lift up pretty high as well as an adjustable engine load leveler, it should all be able to come out together. I would still drop the transfer case off from underneath first. It all depends on how you want to do it. There are other threads out there where others have said how they have done it in the past.
