No special tools needed and it is possible to change them without removing the pivot housing, if it's a Cobra.

I was just where you are, never doing this work before.

There is a ton of info on here regarding bellows replacement. Mine was a Cobra, and I did not remove the pivot housing, and it was quite easy. I even adjusted the lower shift cable, myself, the best advice I got from here was, "Get an OEM manual" "try to use OEM parts" and "make or buy a drive stand" G/L
