Did an R&R in a church parking lot, 6 hours from home, on my '04 F53 chassis with a 4R100 trans. Would have been nice to have power tools, did it all by hand.
Not complicated, plenty of room to work.
Tips:
WHEEL CHOCKS!!!
Trans is heavy, be prepared.
Plan on it pouring fluid, either when you are getting it out, or moving it around.
Do you have an EXACT replacement? Little differences can screw things up.
Did the old trans send debris into the cooler? Replacing it?
1984 you say. Consider hitting any rusty bolts with some penetrant a day or two in advance.
Good luck!
