How would you rate the level of difficult for each job? I can handle 3 wrenches (out of 5) and may be temped to try a 4. Playing around with the axle shafts makes me a bit nervous because if I screw them up replacement is big $.
As mentioned by others, there is not a lot of difference from the front to the rear other than the axles. To do either end, you need pretty much everything pictured, or you will need a slide hammer in place of the hub tooling (bracket and horseshoe).

As for difficulty, I don't find it difficult at all, but as I am equipped differently and do this for a living, perhaps that would be better answered by someone that has done it as a DIY..............
