transpack install difficulty

I've got a B&M transpack I want to install. But I've never done one and am wandering how hard it actually is to do while still in the car. Working off of jackstands doesn't give me the greatest amount of room is it worth me trying I can do about anything else to the car blindfolded, however the tranny has always been a big VOODOO for me meaning I stay away from teating the pan off if at all possible. Only to change the fluid and filter. or would it be worth sending to a shop to do it. and not worry about it? How long should it take a pro to do it with a lift and all? any help would be appreciated. thanks

If you follow the directions to the letter, and keep everything spotlessly clean, it will be no problem.

Thanks for the info , I think I'm gonna try it as long as I take my time hopefully it'll be fine. I'll do it this weekend maybe. I've had the kit for almost two months now I just haven't installed it yet due to time restraints and other projects. Thanks again

Allow plenty of time also. It takes a pro 2 hrs on a lift to do this. Your first time may take 4 or 5 hrs to so. Maybe even more. I never let time factor in on my projects. Work slowly and the end will get there eventually.
