It took two of us 5-6 hours to have it dropped on the floor. If you pick up a haynes ,manual it will also help you out. we didn't have one. I think its a two man job as far as the DIY. Terry said he had one pulled out in 2-1/2 hours. I would also recommend that you have an air compressor. Is your trans about to go mike?

Terry I think he is talking about just pullling the trans out of the car not rebuilding it. He would need a couple expensive presses and numerous measurement tools to get the job done Right.Correct?

It takes 4 hours to pull the motor and trans from the top. About another 20 minutes to separate out the trans. Here's a quick breakdown-
Pulling the motor and trans- 4 hours
Separating the two- 1/2 hour
Packing to send to Terry Haines- 1 hour
Having him build a bulletproof trans and giving your almost broken bits back at SZ- priceless!!!
Pop it out, send it to Terry definitely worth it.
