Temple, TX? I did mine with the help of some buddies. It's a pain in the ***, but it's not that hard if you know what to expect.
In case you want to know, the easiest way to get the tick in behind the brake booster is to unplug a giant harness that's on its right side (facing the firewall). Once you get that done, you can move it enough to squeeze the Tick CMC back there... You need a second set of hands to get bolts feeding into it from the other side of the firewall. That really is the hardest part. Bleeding isn't as bad as everyone says, it's just a slow process. Be just to follow instructions for setting/adjusting the pedal length, as you don't want to over extend the slave.

Well you said in your first post you were from Temple... I just asked since i'm from Waco, 25 miles from Temple, TX.
The hardest part of the install is getting the Tick CMC behind the booster, and threading the bolts in. Everything else is cake. Taking out the old CMC isn't bad, you can cut the actuating rod to make it easier, that is, if you don't plan on using it again or selling it. I really think you can knock it out so long as you have another person helping, especially with the bleeding.

you CAN do it yourself, but if you're big like me, its work. just need a jack, jack stands, basic hand tools, patience, patience, non-fat arms and hands. atleast a 6pack of tall boys for when you're done. you'll need em. like they said, the hardest part is getting the piece positioned correctly under the booster.
