Ok I'll give it a shot tomorrow anything else to note other than 2 11 mm bolts? I'm buying a new toolset tomorrow as well cus my roommate/ brother can't put my stuff back! This time I'm getting a padlock for the box

and they can have the old tools and find the ones they took/lost

Use a REALLY long extension and wobbly to get at the bolts or have ninja hands which I do not!

I've got big hands and arms and chqnging a CPS only take me about 20 minutes. Use a long extension, a medium extension and the wobble-socket. Two 11mm bolts. Take the top one out first, then the bottom. Install bottom first then the top. This helps to keep the bolts from falling into the hole on the bell housing if you don't have the plastic cover for the hole (which I did not). Hardest part of this is getting the holes in the CPS to line up and getting the bolts started.
