Default suspension question?

I am trying to install a H&R cup suspension kit......Does anyone know how hard this actually is, or does anyone have any tips. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Trying or about to try???

Jack stands = needed.
Floor jack will really help align the rear suspension to bolt back in.
Pretty straight forward and not that hard.
Be careful with the Rear LCA bolt.....that sucker had been known the break, stick, strip, and just be a total Pain in the ***.

Be sure to have a manual and torque all suspension bolts back down to spec. I didn't do this and the bolt that attaches my rear trailing arm to the upper arm backed out. Luckily it made a terrible noise while cornering so I found it before anything bad happened. Don't even wanna think about what could have happened...

A torque wrench is your friend.
