It isn't hard.. It's a couple more steps past changing your brakes.. Have you ever changed out your pads/rotors before??

A big *** socket to get the cage nut off of the spindle, I think it's 32mm.. A torque wrench would be good, as I think the torque on the cage nut is something like 190 to 215ft/lbs.. In other words, really really tight..
