Leaking Garbage Disposal
My garbage disposal sprung a leak on the side. I think a screw got into the disposal and busted through the side. How difficult are they to change? It doesn't look too tough, but I never had one. And how much do they usually cost?

It's pretty easy.
Kramer, [in the shower, reading an instruction manual]: "Installing your
Clarkman garbage disposal. Dismantle latch hasp beneath main drainage lot.
Oh, come on, Clarkman."
Puddy, [staring into space, picks up the phone]: "Puddy."
Kramer: "Is, uh, David Puddy there?"
Puddy: "This is Puddy."
Kramer: "Well, this is Kramer."
Puddy: "I know."
Kramer: "Um, listen, you're a mechanic. Could you help me install a garbage
disposal?"
Puddy: "Well, it's a big job. You've got to dismantle the latch hasp from the
auxiliary drainage line."
Kramer: "No. It says 'main line'."
Puddy: "It's a misprint. What do you got, a Clarkman?"
Kramer: "Yeah."

Sorry had to do that. ^^^
I would suggest just buying the same brand and model as your current one. You really don't even have to remove the bracket from the sink if you get the same one.
You basically take a screwdriver and turn the gd till it slips out of the mount under the sink. Connect the electrical and hose for dishwasher (if you have one) and then connect the drain.
