It is not that difficult a project, even with the car sitting on jack stands. You are going to need some tools (a way to support the engine while you pull the gear box, a second supporting device or jack to carry the gear box, a good torque wrench, a 10MM triple square socket for one of the tran’s bolts, etc.). Not difficult, but sufficiently involved that you need a good reference manual to guide you through the process if you have not done it before………..
