Rack&Pinion unit removal procedures

Aaarrgghh!! I am needing (better) procedures to R&R the rack and pinion unit in my '92 std coupe. I am not a stranger to a wrench, but new to owning a T-Bird. I got a Haynes book for it and it describes the procedure in 5 "easy" steps, but step #2; removing the power steering hose connections at the unit, is near impossible to even see yet try to access.
It appears to me that I have to remove alot of stuff in the way like the alternator and p/s pump just to access these connections since they are also somewhat buried under the motor-mount.
So shy of trial & error in just beginning to tear everything apart... Does anyone have some exact procedures on what is need to to access the power steering lines at the rack & pinion unit??
