    I could do it in 30 mins, depends how tight the high pressure line is on the back, they can be a prick!

    Yeah they arn't that bad, I am thinking 2 hours max for the first time. I would get some instructions and read over them first.

    A good pair of vice grips comes in very handy to undo.
