you can probably rent a compressor and an impact gun somewhere

I know how to do it, given a hoist, an air hose, an impact wrench, the right torque wrench, and a garage, but otherwise, I think it'd be insanely hard...sorry

Re: (VeeDubBBoy)
they probably took it to a shop and had it done there if they did not have the knowledge and tools to do it themselves, thats what I did it was not that expensive. good luck

Took things to my step-brother's dad's shop and abused the plethora of lifts and air tools (I had to work, I would've helped though). Then had Frank hook me up w/ his compressor and air tools when my rear shock dismantled itself. http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif

Re: (G60ING)
Some things are better to have done by a pro. Meaning a shop that has all the right tools. Dont forget, its easier to take apart than to back together somtimes. Plus you might need special tool, you also have to compress the spings, & most of all if you break/ damage something you'll regret it.
But most importantly..who's gonna wanna ride w/ you knowing you did your own suspention work in your back yard?

Re: (cramer)
There are some things you should leave to the Pro's.
Go to sears and buy a big arse impact tool,and pound the poop out of it.Or you could do it with an offset box end wrench,or the special $40 socket Cramer speaks of,I have the socket,it helped.Now when that damn nut was frozen to the top of the strut,the whimpy little tool did jack.
Good luck,youre gonna need it
