Its pretty easy actually, but you will need a spring compressor, jack, and jack stands if you dont have them. I did mine in about 2 hours. The left side took a little over an hour, but the right was faster since I knew exactly what I had to do and already had all the tools out and wasn't having to stop to go get more. But if you've never worked with springs and compressing them I'd find someone who has, they can be a little dangerous if your not sure what your doing. Or if you have access to a shop with a strut compressor, thats alot easier and safer then a regular spring compressor.
