Would not recommend DIY unless you have a bearing press like this ImageUploadedByTapatalk1362602225.030426.jpg

You need it to press new bearings onto the diff (old ones will be toast if you try to get them off)

Also unless you have a LOT of experience setting the shims to give you proper gear spacing you will probably goof it up.

In other words if you have to ask if its a good DIY it is not a good DIY. lol

Some guys get lucky with stock spacers. I'm not so lucky... Murphy is my copilot today.
