Well, my first time was without the lift I now have, and I did it the slow way without having the tool to press the tie rod end out of the wheel carrier. It was up on four jackstands, and was done like like I wrote up here:

But 3 hours? I bet I worked on each CV joint 30 minutes just to get them perfectly cleaned and greased back up. That's two hours right there.

I might be a bit obsessive...
