Friggin pain in ze butt!
Took me a whole day replacing the thing from the top.
You really, really need a cable operated clamp tool, about $30 at Sears.
Would I pay $200 for an Indie to do it next time? Yeah, probably.

At $200 yes I would have it done. My quotes from a dealer a few indipendent shops were far more. Cheapest was 1200 and as much as $2200. I had a TIp tranny and they said it had to be removed. Took me about 4 hrs the first time I did this on a Tip tranny. I've done two more since and took less than 2 hrs.
