Change front sway bar on 2004 Monte Carlo?

Be very carefull because there are lines and wires that can be broken if the engine is lowered too far. Disconect the battery. Set the parking brake and chock the rear tire. Put the car on jack stands and take off one of the tires. Put the jack under the rear of the engine cradle. You have to loosen the steering column set screw at the steering rack and loosen the two front bolts that hold the engine cradle to the chassis. Take the two rear cradle bolts almost all the way off and lower the cradle until you can wiggle the sway bar out. The steering will disconnect. Reverse the procedure to put everything back where it belongs. The steering shaft is a "D" shape so it only goes on the rack one way. Tighten the set screw and torque the engine cradle to the required specification. 133 ft. lb. IMPORTANT -- Take the car to an alignment shop and have at least the front aligned. The front suspension is attached to the cradle and can be moved out of alignment. Complete instructions are found in Haynes Manual p/n 24048, chapter 10.

What are the steps to change a 1993 Ford Taurus 3.0 liter transmission?

This is a huge undertaking. I can give you the major steps: You will have to raise the vehicle on a hoist. There is a special engine support tool that spans the front of the vehicle across the two fenders, and uses chains to keep the engine from falling out the bottom while the transmission is being removed. That support will have to be installed, because you will be removing everything that holds the engine in, except one mount located on the passenger's fender apron. Once the support is installed, the vehicle has to be raised and the lower engine/transission support cradle has to be removed. Removal of the cradle will also require unbolting and suspending the streering rack assembly. Both wheels and drive axles are removed. Everything that touches the transmission, such as starter, wiring, speedocable, and anything else in the way is removed. The torque converter nuts are removed. A transmission jack has to be placed under the transmission. The transmission bell housing bolts are removed, and the transmission is lowered through the bottom of the vehicle. Installation is in reverse order of removal.
