$800 with the parts or without? it's not the hardest thing to do but it does take time. if you don't know what your doing you should take it somewhere and have it done, but watch them do it and learn. the last place you wanna be is on the sie of the freeway due to a bad tranny job.

i think you might need front axles(axles might be shorter due to the size of the trans), of course the transmission(HIGHLY recommend a NEW ONE!)/transmission mounts/clutch/maybe the flywheel, the shift linkage, and maybe the driveshaft( i dont know if the auto trans driveshaft is shorter than the maunal one)..... thats the only thing i can think of off the top of my head.
