Replaced tranny coolant lines. Replaced motor mounts and OMG they were shot, especially the driver side one. Saw that my tie rod ends were worn so I replaced them too. Replaced sway bar bushings. Replaced transfer case actuator. Changed out transfer case oil, front and rear differential oil. Replaced all guibos. Installed newly rebuilt tranny. Installed factory tow hitch I scored from junk yard. Now mind you, all this was not done in a day, but TODAY I can say I am finished. Just need to fill it with tranny fluid and do the tranny adaptations.

I'm curious as to your tranny rebuilding experience.
Have you done this before?
How difficult of a job is it?
What was the cost in parts?
I've been curious about rebuilding my own tranny (I picked one up for $50) but have 0 experience. I watched a few youtube videos and I understand that these guys were pros making it look easy, it still doesn't look like anything I might not be able to pull off with enough time.
