If you're just replacing the band, it's not a bad job at all. Basically a matter of removing the final drive from the tranny case (left side) or the diff shaft housing (right side). I'd leave the tire on the wheel and remove the wheel from the hub, and then pull the final drive (six bolts, IIRC)
If you use a chain fall or engine hoist to lift the final drive, the brake part of the job goes quickly enough that you can safely leave it hanging until you put it back on. Having it hanging is also useful as you have to fiddle and jiggle with lining up dowels and the pin that anchors the brake band when you go to put it back on. Be very careful if you have to manhandle the final drive. MENhandle is more appropriate. a) You don't want it falling on anyone. b) You don't want to drop it or otherwise bend the oilpan that makes up the bottom of it.
