You can do it yourself but, the left rear is a pain in the gludiusmaxamus. The fuel tank is in the way. I may have a better chance with the tire off on that side. Also had the black goooie stuff on the frame get all over my hands, and was like tar. Put some old cloths on.

Good luck

Thumbs up

I had no problem. I did need to use about 15"-18" of extensions to get the upper nut from one of the rears. Other than that not too bad.

Dropping toe spare might help. I dropped it for the Helwig install but didn't need to with the Edelbrocks.

Question Replacing Shocks?

How hard is it to replace my shocks myself?
