That's a tough question. It's definitely one of the more difficult DIY things to tackle, but if you're good with your hands and tools, have a strong back or the proper support tools and maybe a couple of buddies to help, it's more tedious and slow than anything.
Since you're asking, I assume you have no knowledge about it, so I'd give it a 7 out of 10 for difficulty.

I had to replace my rear main seal, I had fun takin off my tranny it was exceiting.
I didn't even take the axles out the car, I left them in.
Next time ill take em out, it will make it a lil more easier. Hardest part is lining up the trans, def a 2 person job for a tranny drop, but jus 1 person can pull it off...
Don't forget to have the rite tools!**Blk Housed Slut Crew Member #1**

Lord, grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change,
the courage to change the things I can,
and the wisdom to hide the bodies
of those people I had to kill because they pissed me off.

I just put an H23 tranny in my car 2 weeks ago.
Its was a royal pain in my ass. I did all the Wrencin' my self, then had my Bro help out with the lifting.
1. Buy a 5th of whisky (your choice)
2. remove the axles
3. Remove the linkage and hoses to speed sensor
4 Loosen bell housing bolts. I removed all but one
5. remove all motor mounts. This is so the engine drops slightly at an angle. Youll never get it in if you dont do this.
6. do everything backwards for assembly.
I did it in my driveway with basic hand tools. Took me about 2 weeks couse i have kids so the car is second on the list.

everytime we changed my tranny it took around 5 hrs in all...
then i did it by myself.. i had it out in 25min, and got a hand dropping it back in, in about 45....
but thats where experience and lots of removals and reinstalls comes in handy.
if it's auto don't forget to take the torque plate bolts out...
ps. that was busting ass ..... i wanted to see just how fast it could be done.
to get it out i found it easier to drop the front subframe instead of removing the swaybars and linkages, and i do remove my axles."Self Renewed"
