anyhew, tear apart your old tranny. there isn't too much to it. there might be a few (2 maybe, haven't torn apart a t60 before) clutch packs that you can't get at unless you compress a very stiff spring, but for the most part, you can teach yourself a fair amount about it by tinkering. just keep track of those check balls... make sure you have them all and know where they all go... little buggers...
