They arent that bad, you will need a slide hammer and the right attachment to pull bearing and axle seal out of the axle tube. And cross your fingers and hope you wont need an axle or two. I have pulled a couple appart before that they had to be replaced due to wear.... Anyhow not hard to do, good luck...
