get 3 but i think its only 2.5, you get the drive shaft out yet. just to give ya idea how quick ive had to do mine.... i got home at 3pm one day from work and dropped drive shaft, tranny mount, put new tranny mount back in,driveshaft back in, changed fluid in tranny, and oil and filter in motor. and changed throttle body out also. all that and was on the track racing at by 7pm that evening.but i do have a car lift. another tip for you, whenever you put tranny fluid back in rather than fighting it you can either fill it from the shifter or for later application after motor and all is in run a hose from the fill hole to the engine bay and put a funnel in the hose and fill it from there. its full when it runs out the side thats when you stop and once it stops drainingthe overfill then replaceplug and wipe it down.

i dont have a lift so that doesnt help... and i dunno what im doin so i takes a while cuz i try to figure it out b4 i do it so i dont **** it up.... so its a learn process this time around not a time thing.... and that filling it from the shifter is a good idea.... what hole are u talkin about tho... im not sure i understand that

make sure ur not working on it well its in Nutraul to lol, and using a extended ratch is alot easier to get them on done i hade to replace the drive shaft on one of my dads work truck for his contruction and it was not fun but a normal sort ratchet wont do it and u'll have to use small pipe and also block the wheels front and back. good luck
