What does rebuild mean? Is it just new synchros and forks, or are you putting a new diff., ring gear, and 5th gear? Hopefully rebuild doesn't mean anything big was broken.

I'd give your self at least a full day or two and maybe 3, just so your not rushed to get it done and screw something up. It's not that hard. Just alot of parts.

its not always the diffulticulty of doing, it is also having the correct tools for the task as well. morethan likely, you will need a press, and a good puller set as well.

On a scale of 1 to 10, an engine swap is a 4 and a tranny rebuild is a 9.
