Its not that tough... did mine last week (AGX w/ Tokico springs) Use a spring compressor, it helps. I didn't need to use one on my new springs/shocks (was really surprised at the difference in spring heigh between OEM and the Tokico's)

Anyways, used this site as a good reference. Its Alex Chang's shock/spring writeup.

Good luck and take your time.
