Andrei did it at the track on Sunday with limited tools in about 1.5 hrs, so I’m sure that you can do it in your driveway. He had to drop the sway bar to get at a couple of bolts, but that was only because the pan was dented so badly there was no other way to get to them. ---

i think you have the take off the transmission bracket… it was in the way when i was loosening the pan bolts to take the front cover off. I didn’t bother loosening the rest of the bolts blocked by the bracket… i just used rage. ---

i`m pretty sure you only have to take off the sway bar on a coupe i have a hatch but it can just drop down just put it on a couple of axle stands if you dont have them there like 40bucks from crapy tire ---
