yeah man, i spent close to 500 (prolly more) total on everything i'd say...

the gasket set was 110

the tb kit (with tensioner) was 90

the water pump was 30

i bought new tools like a whole socket/wrench set for 75

i bought an impact gun for 80 (that didn't do anything and can't take back because i scratched it up on the concrete on accident )

then i spent another 56 bucks on the wires/plugs/thermostat/powersteering fluid...

and of course i had to buy radiatior fluid too..... besides all the time i had in it (not that my time is worth much!! lol) and gas money running back and forth to the store...

it took me a whole weekend, one wednesday, then all of friday night and an hour sat and an hour sunday.... lol


but still i feel like i saved quite a bit of money... and gained a lot of knowledge out of it!!!
