Default Anyone familiar with regearing?

Is there anyone here in the PNW familiar and confident in regearing a JK? I would like to regear mine from 3.21 to 4.88, but don't exactly have 2000 to pay a shop to do it? Is it all that difficult? Anyone that might be willing to help me do it for a fee, help a fellow jeeper out. I am sure I can get the gears for quite a bit less, and do the work myself. Especially if I had someone confident in this task walking me through/helping me do it.

Thanks in advance everyone!

Northridge has been know to run a deal for regearing at $999.
I wouldn't want to tackle that job in my driveway

I was about to say this ^^ I had my 4.10s put in at Northridge about a month and a half ago and was surprised by the deal. And of course the quality of work was great and spending the day there is always great.
