Yeah, it's great to save some quid doing it yourself. Probably saved about $300.00 in labour. I was thankful that I'd recently done my coilovers and all the bolts had been recently removed and reinstalled. I had wire brushed the threads and applied anti-seize during the coilover installation, so I was able to complete this drive in my mother-in-law's driveway with a minimum of tools. I basically had 2 scissor jacks, a ratchet with 14mm socket, a 17mm wrench and an adjustable wrench. I much prefer to do this in my well-equipped garage at home, but it wasn't too bad overall.
