If the kings standard height don't put pressure on the spring tops when out of the car then you will be able to get away with out spring compressors (obviously). In that case it all bolts out/in (as a tip crack the nut that holds the spring top on while the car is still on the ground).

Once you have the springs off, you'll need a big shifter/set of stilsons(sp?) to remove the nut type thing that holds in the shock (they are not strut inserts from the factory, they are oil shocks that fit into the struts, you remove the old guts/oil and put your inserts in), you don't throw away the strut Smile

Rears should be easy, as suggested.

Cheers
Wilbo
