Well I just got done changing my 2002 24v's first lift pump, it was very very easy to do. I am a diesel tech so i had an idea on what to expect but i think even the average person who doesn't know much about mechanics could probably do one with little problems. My only problem just getting my hands in a few spots. And taking the fuel filter canister and moving it aside really helps the change out. My truck had almost 60000 miles on it when i changed the pump, i was getting about 11 psi at idle but cruising i was getting about 8 psi and WOT runs i could pull it down close to 5 psi or 4.5 psi. So i figured i better change it before it costs me an injection pump. Now I get 15 psi at idle and i have a hard time getting to pull down to 12 psi! It really made a difference.

Way to go Matt. My old pump wasn't totally shot so now it's riding under the seat inna box awaiting emergency duty.
