I would have someone else do it. From what I have seen, it is not that difficult but there are a lot of things to take into account...tight tolerances, preload, pressing bearings on and off.

You might think everything went well, then you hear the whine of the gears on the highway or you burn up a set.

I would not go it alone. Experience helps with this one. I was thinking of making a swap as well. I would consider it money well spent having someone else do it with added piece of mind.

Could be an expensive learning curve.

My 2 cents- given the current economic conditions it is only worth a 1/2 cent.
