Tranny rebuild question

[Dustin27987]

I am thinking of buying a stage II rebuild kit and trying to tackle the job myself to save some money. Is doing this myself something i can do with only a little knowledge of an automatic transmission and a instruction guide. I was also wandering what special tools i will need to take on this job.
Thanks for any feedback

Pocket screw driver! lol, we got sent home if we came to auto trans class without one. From my memory there arent too many tools, the basic stuff really, and a feeler guage.
