Don't know what the book time is
But from my experience it would take 2-3 hours if everything comes apart
easily
That said, it took me about 12 hours with cutting pipes, heating off bolts,
waiting for PB blaster to sink in, rethreading holes and posts, reassembling
and welding hanger brackets etc.
I don�t think there is any way to predict this other than on an individual
basis
