i did mine my self the rear is pretty straight forward..... take the tires off jack the truck up place on jack stands... keep the jack under the rear axle for now ... then remove the shocks .... and then the rear panhard bar if needed the swaybar end end links..... lower the axle and the springs come right out now make sure u seat them in the pocket and reuse the rubber cone .... and for the front id take the struts into a shop and have them install the spacer here's how the front comes off
