Well, since you've already got the engine out, there are only a few thing to disconnect and you can drop it out. You can take it out as an assembly by removing the torsion bars, steering coupler, and upper control arm eccentrics, or you can take it piece by piece and remove each individual item. Once all the parts are off it, the K itself is not unweildly heavy. A good hot solvent dip will strip it nice and then you can repaint it.
