I am not trying to be a dick, but if you're having to ask this question, I'd have a shop do it.
Your rear end is not something you should really experiment on. IMO.
I've done it before, but I had experienced help, and he had done it a bajillion times before.
IT just gets kinda meticulous.

Well, if you are mechanically inclined and don't mind tedious work then you can do it. I don't know about your skills, so you will need to figure it out if you think you are up to the job. I have not changed the gears in my car, but I have rebuilt the differential and it was easy. However, it was time consuming and messy. I will be doing gears myself in the next week or two. I am attempting this becasue I am very good at working on my car, and I do all the work to my car myself. If you are average to above average in your mechanic skills then you can do it. Just make sure that you get a good instruction manual.
I see that you are from Gainesville. Is that FL? That is where I am from. If you are seriously interested in doing this yourself PM me, and I can give you details and maybe even some help.
Well you'll need a box of band aides , socket set, mechanical abilty, a bottle of hard liquor to get enough balls to tear apart your non malfunctioning diff, time, time, dial indicator, white lithium grease, etc....
I know how to do gears and have done them before. This is a job that you want a proffesional to do. Anybody who has ever had a diff lock up on them before knows why. Skimping out on $ now will cost you three times later. They also suck if you don't have a lift. Just spend the $180-$250 to have them installed.
