Is this a big/difficult job or could i tackle it on my own, have changed all my brakes before, suspension, cv joints and similar so not shy or without a bit of knowledge!

Would i be best getting a second hand one from scrappy? Also whats involved, im really sure of the set up tbh! An advice welcome!

Easy to do, I did one in about an hour having never attempted it before. Just get a haynes it talks you through it all quite well

i thought the haynes manual sucked, but i managed to do both mine eventually

as long as you have the right stuff to do it then youll be fine.

hardest bit i found was trying to do up the bloody clips to hold the CV boot on oh and if you change it, make sure the boot is on the shaft before putting the joint back otherwise youll be a bit annoyed
