you should be fine with what tools you've got.
but however, the AA SYE requires you to press out the stock output shaft and press in their short shaft. that requires at least a 20 ton shop press to do so.
you can take it to a shop to have that done.
otherwise it's easy as removing it and re-installing it once done.

what did he get for a rear driveshaft?

that write up makes it look pretty easy.
it is pretty straight forward, i guess you'll have to cross that bridge when you get there.

good luck, take some pics.
