Replacing a Catalytic Converter

I have a '94 Sport, and it needs a new Catalytic Converter. I bought one that a friend I know was going to install, but that has fallen through. Someone has told me that it's not difficult to do, and that I can do it myself. Is this true? And if so, is there any trick to it? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

It is not that hard (You will use profane language during this operation). You can do it with the skid plate on, but it is easier if you drop the skid plate & transfer case(attached) somewhat to give you more room. Some variables will be --clamps or welded? If it has been on there along time the clamp bolts will be rusted badly and will need some coaxing with a torch or may need to be cut. Wear safety glasses for falling rust & debris (it will get in your eyes), be careful with the torch( torches & gas tanks/lines do not mix) be aware of your location, Jacking safety always. Good Luck and let us know your progress.
