Default instructions for gear swap

I was wondering if anyone had a link to online instructions to swap the ring and pinion gears on an f-body. I bought the car with 3.73's swapping to 4.10's. Was wondering if I could do this myself and save 350$$ from a shop install. I've done all engine and suspension work myself but have never messed with the drivetrain/axle/gears. Is this something I could do myself (any online instructions) or should I pay $350. Any opinion would help

thanks

You will need a lot of tools that will make Autozone or AdvancedAuto's loaner program your new friend. However, they don't lend the $200 inch/lb beam torque wrench.

I bought a brand new inch/pound beam style torque wrench on ebay for $60 brand new.
