with a lift and air tools, it can be done in less than an hour. You don't even have to take the back wheels off to do the rear, just unbolt the lower shock bolt. It can be done at home with a jack and jack stands and just basic tools though too, just takes a little longer. Just shoot me a PM when you are ready to order the spacers.

Important thing to remember is to get the top spring plate back in in the right position. Remember how it's positioned before you disassemble. Also check the torque of the center top nut after 300 miles or so. They have been known to come loose. I stopped mine from getting loose by adding a second nut to lock it in place. Don't use lock tight tho. It will make it very hard to change struts in the future.
