[BaadAssGremlins] 77 amx rear axle questions/help

["Dan M." <vegadan@xxxxxxxxx>]

I have a 77 hornet amx with the 258/4 speed.  I was told that the rear 
axle bearings need to be replaced.  My questions are: 
 
1. Is this difficult, or can I do this myself (I'm somewhat of a 
novice)? 
2. What other rear axles (amc or otherwise) will either directly bolt 
in or will bolt in with minimal modification? 
3. Does anybody have 1 for sale around the Chicago area? 
4. My mechanic says it will be $850 for the parts/labor.  I've never 
had this done before - is this a reasonable price? 
 
Thanks, 
Dan
