If I had a place to do it, where I could throw it up on jack stands and take my time I most certainly would. It's been almost a decade since I've turned a wrench but back in the day I was into it pretty hard. I had 3 talons, and a vr4 galant, only one was in driving condition when I got it. Two of those didn't have engines or trannies...man...I could still probably tell you bolt size and thread pitch of everything on one of those (minus the rear-difs, never actually had to mess with any of those).

Where I'm at now though it just makes more sense to take it to the dealer and have them do it. I've got the expendable income...so being charged for it doesn't bother me.

OMG thank you for mentioning this! I had no idea the oem shift fork was made so cheaply...wow. Will for sure grab one of these forged bad boys.

Clutch kit looks to come with a TOB, so should be good on that end.
