Get out the b'laster, those top rear shock nuts are a bit of trouble! There is a way to hold the rod still while loosening the nut. If you wanna know how much to have someone do it, call your shop and ask! How much time? What brand shocks? What brand springs? Call a few shops if you want.

I had the shop install the front springs onto the shocks but did the rest of the work myself. Labor $0, I just looked cute and blinked blankly doe-eyed at them. Being a 43 year old far cry from cute it also help that I am a regular customer for tires there.
