yeah easy as 1-2-3...or if your not a numbers man A-B-C...the spring compressors are a must have so thats a good start, just make sure you align them right when your putting them in, only like 6 bolts either side...

Take your time when you tighten them and better to use a spanner than the air gun just in case it jumps :eek:

Its a relatively easy job. You got good spanners,sockets and spring compressors and you are laughing! Just drop the sway bar link pin off the strut B4 you try to remove strut. (12 or 14 mm socket, from memory.)
good luck.
