Default 2000 NEON TRANNY SHOT.. How hard is it to replace it?

The tranny broke, and when its in D it goes in reverse. So I can get a used tranny for cheap and put it in. But anyone did it before, I have a lift handy. Does the drive shaft need to be disconnected? I have worked on manual trannys many times, but on RWD cars.

Thank you

Its not that hard to do. I took my 98 out and put it back in a day. I would suggest replacing the clutch while you are there.

Don't replace the clutch then, lol. Its really not that hard to get out and back in, my MTX(*modular clutch) is actually set-up more like ATX. You are gonna need to take the front brakes off, Take the tie rods out of the hub, remove the top 2 bolts fron the strut on both sides, Remove the hub nut, from there you should be able to get the CV's out. You will need to remove or shift around some stuff to get at some of the bolts on top. Other than that its pretty straight forward if you have any experience
