The assemby itself is spring loaded and fits on just so:
No special tools, but I had a brake expert with me when we were changing mine out. The only real tip I can give you is make sure you dont put your parking brakes on upside down! While your in there, inspect your rear brake pads and rotors just to make sure everything looks good. If the pads look worn or if your rotors are cracked or warped, now would be the time to replace them.
The brakes on these trucks almost never go out, so yours may have never been touched. You might have a hard time getting to them, but once you get that cap off you shouldn't have too much trouble.
I can't give you a step by step. You might contact one of the guys on here who have tech manuals to PM you the step by step directions.
