Jesse, I haven't done an auto tranny myself either, but there have been
many posts about doing an auto tranny in the home garage. Apparently the
auto tranny isn't that difficult, and can be managed with ordinary shop
tools. But the manual tranny is a different bear. it requires jigs to
get everything propperly aligned internally. Those jigs are not
something everyone is going to have or know how to use.
