It is not too bad to change out the pinon flange, (differential yoke). You will need to remove the driveshaft first and you will need a puller and a way/tool to hold the yoke. The most important part is to not over tighten the yoke once it is reinstalled. Here are the instructions on how to do the job. Check out the images (below).
