If you can follow directions and know which end of a torque wrench to grab, you'd be supprised what you can do. I've got a 617 torn apart in my garage right now and before that I'd say the toughest thing I'd done was replacing the carrier bearing support. Granted, I can't do things like head work but I sure as heck can strip it down myself, saving major $$ on labor, and send it to the experts. Get a good manual and a nice warm garage and you've got yourself one of the best winter projects you could hope for.
