If you can do the starter, you can pull the cover for the torque converter / belt. If it's slipping, it is most likely going to be either the belt or that rear clutch. You won't really know for sure until you get that cover off.
I sugges that you pull the exhaust off as a unit. Don't try to take those springs off. Not worth the hassel. The exhaust has just two 10mm head nuts holding it on at the head. Those springs will test your patience. Just pull it off as a whole.
