I did my basics as well. You will need spring compressers, but it is relatively easy.

K so it's one of those where you lift the car and you should see what you need to remove.

I take it that the spring compresser would be for the rears since the spring needs to come off.

rear is direct swap, the compressor is for the front, where the shocks are inside the springs and you need to compress the springs to remove the shocks...

As for spring compressor just go to autozone or discount and rent one or buy one and then return it.
