Get a Haynes manual, a $50 ratchet set from Crappy Tire, and some axle stands for $50 and try yourself. The money you save, even with the new tools, combined with the experience/education will serve you well for the rest of your life. Hell, replace and repack your bearings while you're at it. If you really #### it up then call AMA for a tow to a garage, but I doubt you will.

I just rolled 90,000km on a $600 '97 Rav 4 simply because I dared to teach myself some basics. $$$.
