I changed my 06 silverado 4wd quite a while back . I did not remember it being a problem . Seems like it took like maybe a hour .

What I do remember is the kit they wanted me to put was expensive . I did not use the kit and found out there was another valve that fit perfect with no problem and was less than 1/4 of the price . The kit comes with a hose and filter and they want you to run it to the front of the trans . I can change it several times if needed , But it has been fine for years .

Just don't over fill the tank . When the nozzle clicks stop . If you give it more above that it will over fill and run into the solenoid and damage it . I was bad to do that .

Just a little piece of info if anyone was interested .
