Well, for most people (including myself) I would say they usually tackle almost every job on the car themself except for the rear end. Can it be done at home? Yes. But, you really should have a dial indicator (a tool most of us don't own) to set the backlash correctly. My step dad taught himself how to work on them just from a repair manual in his backyard, so it can be done. But in general, it is not the easiest job to do in the world.

If I were you, I would pick up a repair manual and take a look at what is involved. Then, if its looks like something you want to tackle yourself, go for. Just my 2 cents.
