Haven't done the TAB on my 92, but I did do the front struts, ball joints, and a handful of bushings. You can do it. It was my first bit of major work (or at least what I would consider major) on my car and it went just fine. The only thing I would say is do not buy aftermarket rubber, i.e. no scantech. Even though it's not too bad, it's not a job you'll be in a hurry to do again and after only 25,000 miles I'm going to have to.

This page was a huge help as many of the steps are the same: http://forums.turbobricks.com/showthread.php?t=165499

Oh, and PB Blaster is your new best friend.
