How hard is it to replace a transmission on a lawnmower?

I have a 2008 Troy bilt self propelled lawn mower. Was out mowing today and about half way through I felt a click in the transmission handle and lost power. Suddenly I had a push mower. So I finished up doing the lawn the old fashioned way.

My first thought was a worn belt. So I replaced that today, no change. So, I am thinking that the transmission itself went out.

A "transmission assembly" for this mower is $50 online. Then it's a matter of getting the old one out and the new one in without screwing something up. I called my local shop and they said they can do it for $100 but it's a three week wait.

Anyone tackle this before?
