Pulling the inner axle shouldn't be all that intimidating. Pulling the outer shaft is fairly straight forward, but requires quite a bit of additional wheel/hub/spindle disassembly. Once all that is out of the way, the inner should be fairly basic. When I replaced my CV boots, I pulled the spider gear off the outer shaft (that which connects to the inner shaft) to remove and replace the boot. I know nothing about the speedo gear, so I can't say what's involved there. If you don't want to get in there and get dirty, perhaps you can find a mech who knows what he's doing and for a good price.
