I think you could do it as long as you realize that it will take twice as long as it should and will not go according to plan. Nothing I work on goes as planned. I have gotten used to it. My mother in law needed front brakes on her Neon a few months ago. Simple enough job right ? A caliper bolt broke off flush trying to take it out and the piston in one of the calipers cracked in half. A simple brake job involved two extra trips to the parts store and a helicoil kit before it was over. One of the first things I did to my 93 was a gear swap which went smoothly until the cover was seeping gear lube, I got the bright idea to retorque the bolts and stripped one, so I had to pull it out AGAIN and bust out the helicoil kit.


I figure my average home improvement project requires 5 trips to Home Depot (including the first one to get everything I need).
