Hey Davey, if you don't mind getting a little dirty I think you can probably do it . Pull the rear cover and drain the oil. pull out the the little 5/16 head bolt and push the cross pin out. AsSimi said get a Chilton and it will have pics. With your tires and brake drums (I'm assuming you got a Fox body) push the axles in and then you can remove the c-clip. Then just slide the axles out and youll see the bearings. With a slide hammer with bearing puller on the end (you can borrow or rent from local auto parts) just pull them out . Then with large socket just tap the new ones in. Make sure to check the axles for grooves. If there there it will be time for new axle. Hope this helps
