Did mine 1 year ago right after I bought the car. With extremely limited mechanical experience might I add. Still going strong. Starting Motor mounts. oil pan gasket, steering rack, rebuilding ball joints, upper A arm bushings, and servicing trans-axel in the next week.

Did it myself, if I don't count the dozen Rennlist members who assisted me with my "unique" tensioner (having 19 bimetal discs - and no roller at the top).
Without these guys, it wouldn't be done.
I can't take credit for helping Curt. I could only be there for a couple of hours & I think I had a wrench in my hand for less than 5 minutes that day.
