Default Question on T5 removal & replacement

Hey people, I've always had autos in my muscle cars but my B&B cobra has a T5 that is in need of repair. Clutch, TO bearing etc have about 5k miles, T5 has unknown and tag shows it's an '89. CABLE operated clutch, not hydraulic.

My question is...to remove and replace the tranny only, can I just:

1) remove drive shaft
2) put jack under tranny
3) remove tranny mount
4) unbolt T5 from bellhousing
5) remove T5 straight out
6) replace with new.

Do I need to worry about the TO bearing dropping into the bell housing when I remove T5? Any other things to look out for or do?

Thanks guys!
