    Its not too bad and no you dont really need special tools i advise you get the shorter ones at autozone they make it alot easier and they arent enough shorter to be a prob just enough shorter to make the install alot easioer. You will prob need a grinder of somesort a hammer and all the usual tools to take your wheel off. idr if i took the whole break assembly off to do it or not im thinkin i may have.

    It would be nice to be able to take them to a machine shop and have them pressed in and out. That's the right way to do it.

    You take you're wheel off with a grinder and a hammer? What else do you use? Ever try a jack,jack stands and a lug wrench?
