If the fronts are already mounted, then you have the hardest part out of the way. Getting those apart sucks, as the nut on the top holding the assembly together rusts and is almost impossible to take apart. When I did mine I had to take my front shock/spring assembly to my buddies shop and use the impact gun to get the nut off. On one of them, even with the nut off, the upper spring perch was seized to the KYB shock. Don’t ask how we got it apart, lol.
