Message	A friend of mine and I removed my transmission and clutch last weekend in about an hour and a half taking our time with plenty of breaks. I don't know how hard it is to put everything back in (we are starting that this weekend now that parts are here) but taking everything off was pretty easy. He is also a professional mechanic and we did it at a car shop with any tool you can imagine and a lift, doing it on your own garage on some jackstands sounds a little bit tricky...
