wtf? it took me awhile to do the fronts cause my 1/2 craftsman ratchet snapped off one of the spindle/shock bolts inside the spindle and we had to have a machine shop drill it out. but the rears took me about an hour or so in my grandma's garage. all it takes is a 1/2 ratchet to get the rears off at the bottom, and a 3/8" ratchet for the tops. spring compressors and be purchased for like 20 bucks or you can rent them for free, no excuse for doing it any other way, and the reasons against are things like broken wrists.
my dad knows a guy that lost his eye sight in his left eye that way. caught a nut in the face after it popped off. ouch? indeed.
anyway I discovered today if I use my little collapsible inspection mirror I can see the dials, and I can still turn them no prob. so mounting them to the outside isn't so bad, but to the inside is still ideal.
