Default Installation difficulties

Just wondering if the installation and replacements of front and rear drive shafts could be done by me with a few helping hands rather than paying the extra cash for a shop to do it. Advice?

Here is the front drive-shaft write-up:

The rear, I'm not sure about. Would assume its almost the same with some slight differences? Sure someone will post something about it as well, or you can get more insight from fellow members.

Taking the stock drive lines off is very easy. You must have a 1/4 inch drive ratchet around some where's with an 8mm socket.

That is the main tool you will need, and either a 15 or 16mm socket with a 3/8 or 1/2 inch drive.

If you have an impact and torque wrench for the yokes, you are set.
