to be honest it wasn't hard at all (knocking on wood) i did grab a Haynes manual for $17 which tells ya step by step.! with the manual, both seals, gasket maker, LS addative, brake cleaner and 3 qts. of mobil 1 synt. fluid it cost me just under $100.... i called a few places and they wanted anywhere from $180 to $230 per side.
Thanks again guys!! and hope i did it correct or i'll be stranded somewhere between here and IN......
