installed it myself, it was a pain in the *** but really there are not any good directions out there, at least when i did it. the main thing to look out for is one of the transmission bolts is put in through the engine side, vs the rest on the transmission side. i think it took me a full day to get that figured out, had everything else off but it wouldnt budge.

Yea it took me 8 hours to remove my transmission for the first time and about 2 days to get it back in. I did mine a few months ago. the engine side trans bolt For me that was easy i had the extentions to get back in there easily with a magnetic socket. The hardest part for me was getting the power steering rack lined up with the frame again and then the frame lined up, had to use the alighment holes with big metal dowels
