The pressure hose? It's easy from what I heard.
When mine failed and started spewing fluid everywhere, I panicked and went to Pep Boys.
20 minutes later the tech gives me the bill- $12 part and $125 for labor. Learned my lesson.
Even he said it was "really easy".
Good luck.

I think one side uses a 17mm and the other side uses a 18mm open end wrench. Changed to one on my wifes 98 Z and one on my 94 v6, each took about 20 minutes.
