2000 altima manual transmission

[00_Altima MD]

I just needed to know if I needed any special tools or if there was anything that I needed to know about this transmission before I tore into it.

there are some press pipes for pushing gears on but those can be substituted with similar size pipes. There are several pressed on pieces so a hydrolic press will be needed for complete dissasembly and reassembly.

well i think that i might have just bent a shift fork or rod. do I need to drop the entire transmission to get that out or what do i need to do.

[NISTECH]

Yes the transmission will need to come out and have the case split to get to the shift forks inside. Though you will not have to press anything. There are some springs and balls you need to remove and pay extra special attention to what order they come out in so you put them back the exact same way. You would be doing that to remve the shift rod for what ever fork you are replacing.
