I have bought a set of braided brake lines for my EF. How hard is it to replace them yourself? And im assuming you lose your brake fuild as well?

I never done the ones on my car but have done plenty of others but looking at mine id say it would be a piece of cake just replace them and get a mate or someone to do a good old two man brake bleed.
