Default ZTT-T Diesel 135 Slave Cylinder Help

The clutch slave cylinder has gone on my ZT-T. I had the whole clutch (inc. DMF replaced 20,000 miles ago - not sure if slave was also replaced then), so it should just be the slave that now needs replacing:
Q1) Is this a job that can practically be done on the driveway?
Q2) What type of cost should I be being quoted for this?(I see that the LUK Freelander part is recommended so I would purchase this separately).
Q3) Any recommendations who I could get to do this (mobile), as I really don't want the expense of transporting the car to a garage (subject to answer to Q1!)?

Thanks,
Stephen

Have look in the--How-To---section.

There is a detailed method by French Mike.

Can be done on the driveway but not usually a job for a DIY mechanic.

At that mileage you quoted the clutch itself should be fine.

You could always take a look at it when the slave cylinder is being done.

It's not a job I'm going to attempt myself. Any recommendations as to a mobile mechanic willing to take this on?
