Hello, i need to replace the stabiliser link bar.Is this something that can be done without to much grief and hassle,with only good basic skills? One of my worries is only having the car on the one car jack with no other supports.Your thought would be most appreciated.

There's no taper, jacking it up does not help. The easiest way to get these off is to lop the nut off with an angle grinder or nut splitter. Chances are on a 9 year old car it will just be rusty mess by now! There will be some way of holding the new stud to allow you to tighten the nut up (either flats behind or allen / hex in the end).
