tranny RR time

[Ryan Hoitink]

I would agree, that amount of time is reasonable, but a little on the long
side.  Did you have any big problems?  My father and I did an autobox in one
of my old 5k's, and it took a little less than 9 hours.  That was after
removing it the second time, because the splines didn't line up on the
torque converter.  Granted, we worked straight through, only stopping to eat
once, but that's how long it took, start to finish.  Although I didn't drive
it for 2 days after the procedure, because it would have ruined my weekend
if it didn't work out. :)
