Not hard at all i replaced mine a couple of weeks ago. The hardest part was getting the bottom hose off.

Second that on the lower hose. Just make sure you tighten the clamps very good. Had a few leaks and had to crank them a bit more.

for the most part an easy job. Follow the above links for info. Stay away from JB Weld tho, it's always better to fix something right the first time. Good luck.
