I need to replace both Cv joint assemblies and I want to do this myself. How long should this take and are there any bits of advice on doing it?

If you have never done CV axle replacement, plan on doing it on a Saturday morning to mid-day. A seasoned technician can do both in a bout 1.5 hours including prep and cleaning afterward. Get a Haynes or Chilton (Haynes is more user-friendly for non gearhead). They have more pictures to each step than what we can provide.
