it is very easy, all i would suggest you do is go to a shop to get your rear shock bolts loosened like mentioned earlier. if you don't, most likely you will break them like almost everyone else does including myself. then after you break them, its a pain in the ass!! good luck

Ok teggy, heres what they mean by getting the bolts "broken". The ones on the lca(lower control arm) are usually frozen like you woldent believe. So its the best and easiest to run down to midas and give them 20 bucks to break them loose. So when you get home they can come out easily.

the head usually breaks off. then you are stuck with drilling them out. PITA.
you can also try to soak it in some penatrating oil.

what we are all trying to tell you is go to a shop, have them break the bolts free, that way you don't have to spend the money on the two new bolts, and you don't have to endure all the frustration and lost time from breaking them. the money you would have spent on the bolts can be saved and used to pay the shop to break them free for you. so either way, its gonna cost you a few $, but nothing major and you save A LOT of time by doing it this way.
