Trans Bellhousing Replacement

Bellhousing Removal - I have a '78 CJ7 with a three-speed and an AMC304. Just rebuilt the engine, put it back in and went to install my clutch assembly bracket. Something wasn't right - I reached up and grabbed the bell housing where the clutch bracket bolts in, and the whole piece of bell housing came out in my hand. Broke right off.
I've sourced a new bellhousing, but my question is - how best to go about changing it. Is it as simple as dropping the tranny/transfer case and just unbolting the new one? How do I navigate the clutch lever? Pretty sure I can figure it out, but wanted to see if there were any tips/tricks from anyone who's changed out a bell housing before.
Thanks!
