get a Haynes manual, and only take apart one side at a time, so that you can compare the complete one to the one you are assembling. and get a decent set of brake tools, they will make it ALOT easier.

The only hard part of the change is if you don't have the tool to remove the springs. You can do it with pliers, but it is a bit tricky sometimes.
