If i did a tranny swap with a basic tool set, and jackstands in my driveway... i think you can handle taking off 9 bolts.... and one exhaust hanger!

I took mine loose, pulled the gearbox back far enough to swap the clutch disk & put it all back together last night in 2hrs with no help. On jack stands, 2 jacks (one for gear box another on Diff).

But the car was already on the stands, the starter was still off, & I've done it about 6 times before...
