clutch slipping question

I am almost ready to change the clutch on my 85 900T, but before I do I would like to make sure it is needed. The clutch does not seem to slip upon starting moving (even in higher gears it will kill the engine), instead it seems to slip at speed upon accelerating (the engine rpms increase but the speed remains constant) and the question I have is does that come from a worn clutch or could it be another component in the drivetrain?
And if the clutch is bad, what is the approximate time it would take a DIY'r that is pretty mechanically inclined but doesn't have a lot of Saab maintenance experience to change said clutch.
thanks.
