depends on how much youre willing to take apart. we used compressor on it. on mine i removed the halfshafts from the knuckles and was able to remove it as a unit. rear is separate spring/shock, and takes about 9 minutes to swap

when i was working on the front drivers while brett was finishing the passanger front, the strut/spring assy fell into the wheelwell and got stuck. was very odd. this sucked until i figured out a way to get it out. leverage, wins every time.
