It's wise to replace the nuts which hold the ends of the shockers to their bolts, as they have a locking compound.
Easy enough job if following Haynes instructions.
But soak nuts in WD40 before starting, and be prepared to be faced with corroded damper bushes which won't budge.
Then it will be time to get out the heat gun/hacksaw/angle grinder.
Good luck.

Fairly straight forward job, jack it up, couple of bolts on each end - not much else to add!
