If you have the time ,patience and the mechanical ability i have a good video and most of the tools. i did my front and rear myself and I was a first timer. that was about 4k ago and im still running with no issues.

It cost him "FAR" less than paying the labor...trust me when I say that.
At $70 to $90 per hour labor it adds up quick.

I spent alot more then normal because of buying tools but it was the cost of gears and bearing kits the  time is hard to say because i was on vacation and my son was home from Irac but total time for front and rear was less then ten hrs now remember it was my first time and I put in lockers ,axels gears. I will say I feel much better knowing I did it myself its a real good feeling

Exactally...A "Built" Jeep is more satisfying than a "Bought" Jeep. However, at my age I'm considering "buying" a built Jeep... :D
