one thing to remember if you do it yourself... if you put on a camber kit at the same time... when you unbolt the front upper control arm from the frame don't let that shiz rotate outward too far. if you do your cv joint will separate and you have to remove the cv boot and repack the bearings which is a mofo. other than that you just unbolt the spring/strut assembly, compress the spring, take the spring end caps off, replace old springs and struts with the new ones and put it all back together. pretty simple.
