No kidding! Have you checked out SDHQ's How-To yet? It's pretty straightforward, and I found that to a mechanical novice like myself the install is actually easier than it looks. You'll need basic tools, a set of spring compressors (roughly $20 to buy or you can rent them at most O'Reilly, AutoZone, Pep Boys, etc.) and probably want one person to help with the "hold this in place", "turn this", "move that while I hold this", etc. but it's actually a fairly easy one-afternoon kinda job once you know what you're doing.If you get into it and have questions along the way, you could always call me or call Jules for help.By the way, people always talk about having to remove the stickers on the shocks in order to get the spring perch to slide..... I did it on the first one because I assumed I had to.... on the second one we used a ton of lube ( :********: ) and the perch slid over the sticker so I never had to remove any of it at all. In retrospect I wish I had done that with both of them.
