So I am gonna have to drop the tranny on the Laser to fix the throw out bearing and HOPEFULLY nothing else.
Not sure how high I am going to have to get the bitch to do this though...or if I even have access to jacks to get it up high enough. Car can't go anywhere, it doesn't move. Can't put it up on ramps, since the wheels have to come off.

So.......anyone wanna come help and possibly bring the tools for the job? I am such a noob when it comes to working on my own car it sickens me, but I am just afraid I am going to end up the with car jacked up, torn apart, and still not be able to drop the thing.

I am free Sunday after 3, and Weds after that. I would like to get this done asap. I know this is a LONGSHOT, but if anyone wants to help, I would be more than gracious. The DSM bretheren in B-N runs somewhat thin.
