Not to bad if you have the tools. You need to get the correct socket which I think is a 32 or 33mm socket but look it up for sure. You will want to just replace the axle its way easier and better all around cause the CV kits don't always work. Axles will run you about 75 bucks at napa. Get a haynes or chiltons manual and follow the steps should only take you about an 1 to 1.5 hrs for a first timer.
