just remember to break the axle bolts loose before you jack the car up. They're a real bitch to loosen otherwise.

If you know what your doing and work somewhat fast you should be able to get it done in 2 hours. And when you done Burnout's are the best way to break you new clutch in

Re:Tranny Swap Time

It take me about an hour and a half if its on a lift. Make sure you get all the starter bolts. Mine was stuck and i couldnt figure out why until I ripped it off with it stuck to the tranny
