It is pretty straight forward. Just like any project, make sure you are prepared and that you have everything you need.

i've done this a few times and i'm not anything over a level 2 mechanic (battery, tire and alternator certified)

the breaker bar or the air gun is a must to get the tower bolt off (thats after using the spring compressors- a must!)

pretty straight forward and you'll want an alignment to be perfect but you can eye ball it.
