Hello,
Yes the transmission comes out pretty easy after subframe removal which is easy in this car. When reinstalling the transmission one of the most important things is to bleed the clutch slave before you put the gearbox back in, otherwise it can be tricky to get it bled out enough to disengage the clutch.
Unless you mess with differential there is usually no need to re-shim anything. But the tricky part on the Saab gearbox is preloading the bearings on the shafts since they are destroyed when splitting the case. The one bearing can be pretty hard to remove without the special tool but can usually be done without alot of trouble if you have a good set of bearing splitters. Good Luck, Bernie
