Default Anyone DIY'd on H&R lowering springs?

I have had some springs sitting in my garage for a couple months and am wanting to put them on myself and was wondering how hard it would be. I hate the factory 4x4 look.

It is definately a DYI project although you may want to have help dissassembling the spring/shock package if you haven't done it before.

If you are replacing just the springs and not the struts, the fronts are real easy. Unbolt the 3 nuts nolding the top of strut and disconnect the sway bar link. The whole assembly will then fold out from under the fender. I can do the fronts in 15 minutes a side. The rears need a spring compressor to change, but no other big problems to change.

If your doing the springs, are you replacing the shocks and struts? Might be worth doing as well( i mean your there anyway ). just my .02
