Default Blower motor replacement help

So my ac and heat don't work on my 92 Cherokee. In fact I can't get any air at all to come out. I am assuming that the blower motor went and I have a spare in my donor but how do I get it out?

Thanks for the help but what you described is for an older model. It's exactly what I did on my 1990 to get the working motor out. On the 92 you need to remove the wash fluid container and then do the same steps to remove the blower motor. Got it working now though. Now I just need freon.

I must have grabbed the wrong book to copy I forgot about the washer fluid res.
You still using r-12 or did you update to R-134. r-12 is getting harder to come by.
