Bill,

Easier to pull the trans on a BD? LOL you must be joking!
The short list of BD headaches:
Trans tunnel was not removable (unless you have a saw! see the pictures in my gallery)
Trans tunnel tapers so rapidly that the trans collides with the tunnel walls before the input shaft clears the bell housing
Welded in cross member will not allow the tail shaft housing to drop down for trans removal
Differential angle 3.5 deg nose high (did I hear someone say vibration?)
Welded in cross member did not allow for adjustment
Welded in cross member had no drain hole and was filled with rusty black water.

Which part of the SPF is over rated?

I do like the BD at its price point, but I dont think near the car the SPF is car for car.
