PS pipes I made a couple of plugs specifically for them, but either an M10 bolt with a plain shank and a couple of hose clamps, or use brake hose clamps to pinch the pipes shut. It'll dribble everywhere which is normal so have lots of blue roll / rags to hand.
Trans cooler just let it drip out. You'll lose about 250ml which can be put back in to the top cooler line socket with a tube and small funnel.
Don't disconnect the AC as that's under pressure (and utterly seized). With the condenser unbolted from the rad you can swing it round so it lies flat on the left side under the abs block etc. I'd recommend taping some cardboard over both sides to protect it.
Or, leave it all connected and put two 8" pieces of M8 threaded rod in the chassis legs to support it, and just move it forward. As noted, personally I feel thats like wallpapering the hallway through the letterbox, but I have the facilities to take it all to bits. Its a bit different on a driveway outside!
