It's not hard but will take some time. If you can do a shock swap it will not be a problem.

It's a lot easier if you have access to a lift but even in the driveway it's not too hard.

A great mod and well worth the money.

Having a friend is a near must in getting this install done. Took me and a buddy about an hour and half to get it done. Rear was much more difficult that the front one. Exhaust pipes were a bitch to get around. Taking off the rear wheel on the exhaust side will make it easier. You also might want to tape off the bottom of the side sills to avoid scratching them on accident. Best of luck. It's definitely better as a DIY, the amount of confidence and knowledge you gain by doing it is definitely worth the time and effort it may take!

I did mine (Hotckis) myself with ramps. Deep sockes are nice for the one front bolt. No need to remove anything extra on the rear. Just have to snake the rear bar around the exhaust pipes.

Forgot about the deep sockets, had to go get a set of those half way through the project. You may need a breaker bar as well if you don't already have one.

I had air powered impact wrench but with deep sockets and a breaker bar, it would have been just as easy
