or about 4 hrs if you plan correctly, have the right tools, and dont break anything. after doing 5 sets of springs and shocks, i can get em in and out in about 1.5 hours

Super easy. I could probably do it with my eyes closed I have done it so many times. You can borrow and spring compressor from Kragen for free btw...
