I need to get a lot of stuff replaced and don't want to get raped by the shop. I've never fixed anything suspension wise on my car before, but i can't imagine it to be that bad. I'm somewhat mechanically inclined. I need to get my axles, inner/outer tie rod, and upper control arm replaced on both sides. I've already looked and the parts aren't that expensive brand new on ebay. So back to the question, is it that hard replacing it or should I just take it to a shop? People with experience, chime in! Thanks.

 

I could do the job in and afternoon but, I have tools too (and a shop manual). With a shop manual and the proper tools, a mechanically inclined person could do all this relatively easily.
