Ford Windstar Output Shaft Sensor (OSS/VSS) replacement

Hi: I own a 1996 Ford Windstar GL  3.oL engine and want(need) to replace the Output Shaft sensor (OSS), also called Vehicle Speed sensor (VSS) with “mechanical Speedometer cluster” located behind the Transaxle on the passenger side of the vehicle. I have heard some horror stories??

Has anyone done this repair?

What is the easiest way to replace sensor using back yard tools with no hoist or air tools. THanks alot.
