  1. Just got it done for $840 from a local tranny shop including the clutch kit/parts etc. 5 houras labor...which is approx 25% less time that'd take ye olde DRum :)also needed a new half shaft (borked cv boot) and two new half shaft seals since they're prone to leakage. Parts on the shaft and seals was $150 and they didn't charge me anything to put them in since everything was off anyways. Not a bad deal, and the shop was real good to work with. I'd like to attempt this someday with air tools and a tranny jack...on a car I don't need to drive to work tomorrow . DRum
  2. Okay, so I'm a fairly green shadetree mechanic...and have done only basic stuff (brake jobs, alternators, oil(duh) & belts (double duh). I've always been under the opinion that any can do anything if they put their mind to it and have time to learn. That being said, 20 hours or spanning 5 days is alot of time to save $500 in labor...This is a bit more complex than anything I've even done...am I crazy for even thinking about doing this? How much should this cost to have done by a local shop? DRum
