I'm not sure what your experience level is but I did mine in my driveway in a few hours one night. Not terribly difficult with the right tools. The spring compressors are like 15 bucks at harbor freight/autozone, or autozone might have a loaner set for free.

or you could go with this method and not use a spring compressor. i haven't tried it before but i don't see why it wouldn't work. http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=32414

Delta V in Richmond has always been good to me.

But for something like this, I'd just DIY.
