Check out randy's ring & pinion. They have some information for gear installation, basically what you are looking for.

Unless you are very mechanically inclined and have the tools, I would not dare try to install it myself. Just take it to reputalbe shop. A friend of mine is doing mine over the weekend for $75 and some beer.

i did not hear anything about axle seals. i guess i will have to do some extensive research before i attempt this myself. don't you have to pull some of the axle? is this what the axle seals are for? i plan on running 85/140 as gear lube. anyone advise against that?
