Hi, has anyone done this themselves?

Any special tools needed and how hard is it?

cheers!

It's o.k. to do as a DIY job. Just make sure you disconnect the battery first as you will be taking off the positive lead from the starter motor and you don't want it shorting out on the chassis or gearbox. Also make sure you have a long enough extension on your rachet to reach the lower bolt from the gearbox side. Happy fitting.

Cheers, for that.

Should be ok on the tools front and believe me, you only have one battery blow up in your face. You never forget to disconnect them or "Earth off first and on last" after that! wink
