What kind of tools and special tools am I going to need to rebuild my t-5 tranny? I heard you can rent tools at autozone would they have them there? Right now, all I have is basic tools so I need to know what I am going to need.

I already have the handbook and im most likely going to order the video to help me out so i dont screw up. Has anyone ordered this move before? How much of a help was it?

Another question I have is how do you get the bearing out back by the driveshaft? I replaced the seal and it was still leaking. Then i discovered that the bearing is bad.

Those of you who have rebuilt your transmission, would you do it again or pay someone to do it?
 
dont absolutely need the puller, but it may help

dunno which bearing you need, but all bearings come in the standard rebuild kit

i would definitely do it again, assuming you dont need any new hard parts, a $200 rebuild kit and an 8 hour job sure beats paying someone 750-900 to do it
