Disc brake caliper question?

On my 91 F-150 front passenger brake caliper has a leak. I was wondering if i can install this on my own and how to do so. If i take it to a brake shop.. how much would it be and how long?

Thanks a lot for the help

Sure it's the caliper and not the hose? Either way a shop is gonna charge probably 1 1/2-2 hrs. labor to replace/bleed brakes.Calipers will leak,but most of the time it is either the rubber hose or the hard line.There's alot of opinions on this,but if it is caliper,replace both and hoses too.That's my .02
