Not very hard. Pick up a Haynes or Chilton and go to town. Good luck

It all depends what tools you have, and if you have help. An extra set of hands is always useful. And the right tools make things go smoother and quicker. Good luck man

I'll be doing the same thing soon, but in my F250

if your not familiar with what your doing then it would be hard so get a book and follow the instructions from draining tranny fluid to not loosing your bolts that you have taken out lol i had a hard time doing this the first time
