If you have someone able to do the job right, go for it. But if not I wouldn't fear giving it a try. I did mine but have not yet driven the car to see if I did a good job or not. I have had to ask about a ton of things I've done but I have always found good help here. So if you get stumped ask. You will find a ton of people that are very experienced with things like this. You will need a dial indicator for the backlash, and a shim pack. A machine shop to press on the pinion bearing, and a impact to get off/on the pinion nut.etc etc...
