I've not personally done it, but I've heard it's not bad. The hardest part is setting the shims in to get the backlash correct so the gears don't howl from what I've been told.
honestly just get a shop to install it in for you so you don't have any noise problems
+1 Save yourself the time and heartache. If you dont do it just right they wont last long and you'll have to have a shop fix it for ya. Or have someone that has done it several times do it for cheap.
+1 ^ take his advice. Not worth IMO if you never done it before and don't have the tools especially if you mess it up or break something.
Oh btw, your gonna love those gears. :beer:

+1 to everyones opinons up there don't waste your time....go pay a shop to do it they normally aren't too outragous on gear install prices....
my shop only charged 200 bucks to put a whole rearend together (31 spline axles, eaton carrier, and 3.73 gears) for the track its pretty cheap and its a hell of a lot of bang for your buck
my buddy tried installing them himself and two weeks later a shop removed almost two pounds of shavings because he didnt do it right
