Same as all the rest -- a lift helps, but I've done this job on jack stands too.

Pay attention to which way the bolts go, and put the new ones in the same way the old ones went. This is important, as they are installed so that there is less chance of the nuts walking off the bolts.

Be careful not to separate the halves of the driveshaft, some of them are not marked, and it will almost surely vibrate if you do separate it and don't get it back together properly.

Replace the carrier bearing and rubber bushing if they are not perfect, they aren't expensive and it's only a very few steps more. Mark the driveshaft with something that will not wipe off as you must separate it for this part of the job.

Expect to get dirty, but this isn't a terrible job.
