Default Another "?" About FD Swaps

I have another question about the swap of final drive pumpkins. What all is involved in the swapping of one pumpkin from my car with that from another car? From what I have read, all that is involved is unbolting the driveshaft and halfshafts and then unbolting the pumpkin. Someone who has had their FD pumpkin swapped with another please enlighten me about what is involved and about how long this job should take. I jsut am not thrilled about paying $250+ for a swap which I was thinking is about an hour or 2 job.

TIA,
Zach

I did it by myself with very limited tools. It does not take that long to drop the stock pumpkin and install the new one. I can't remember exactly but it shouldn't take a shop longer than an hour to do it.
