What all does it involve? Haven't checked the other side, but most likely needs replacement too... one thing after another!!!
It depends. If only the boots are torn but the joints haven't lost all the lubrication they need, and they are not worn, I think you only need to replace the boots, which is what I did on mine, a do-able DIY, mostly labor. If the inner (transmission side) joints are bad, they are sold separately and not very expensive. If you need to replace the outer joints, I think those are only available as whole half axles ($$$).
