I assume you'll use the ramp to give yourself a bit more room?? Sorry to hear about your back!

To take the gearbox off if you know what your doing about 1hr if you dont about 2.

i am not sure you have to replace any bits between the gearboxes

you need 2 pairs of hands todo these auto boxes as they are heavy

Silly arse!  Both for doing your shoulder in, and for chipping a tractor with ar25 ;D

I reckon someone like yourself, 4hrs.  You will need extra hands though.  Whipping intake off and starter motor out will probably make it easier if you're not using ramp.

Didn't James V6 do this by having the box on a pallet truck? Or is that just my imagination?  ::)
