i am by no means a mechanic, but how difficult and dangerous would it be for me to put my coilovers on myself, i am not trying to get cracked in my face by a spring or anything.

 

not hard, just be carefull when you are seperating the stock springs and the shocks.. make sure it's compress pretty good. you can buy a spring compressor or rent one from pep boys or kragen ( i think)....

power tools like impact gun would help a lot but not required as long as you have good set of wrench and sockets....

 

And if you don't have an impact gun, patience will be required.

Oh and yea, you can rent out spring compressors at Pep Boys.
