I think the rears are pretty straight forward. The front i dont know. I haven't worried about lowering springs since mine came stock.

pretty straight forward. YOu need a special socket to fit a hex wrench for the front struts.

The passenger side is tricky that the control arm doesn't drop all the way down.
