good with spanners but not spelling or grammar ;)

Cant imagine its a long job to be honest for a qualityed mechanic.

Maybe leave a couple of hours if that...

Just make sure u line it up fully back on the pegs when you put it back. Seems common that lots aren't then you get pulling to the left

I've never done it myself . I'd say it will be a pain if not up in the air.. prob a couple of hours to half a day I'd guess

Tbh it's not the nicest job especially on the deck. Just start first thing in the morning and keep going with it.
