Do it myself or let someone else?

Do it myself or let someone else?

Soooooo, ive got my new shocks and springs just waiting to be installed. However, im not quite sure whether i wanna go through the effort of installing it with the help of a few moderately car knowledgable friends or taking it to a shop and having them do it. I've got a weekend to blow on the task, but i've never installed springs and shocks before so it'll be learning as i go... probably wont make for the most efficient install. But i figure the task is do-able, just a nuisance. Any tips on install and or suggestions would be great.

I was a little nervous about doint this also, but with the help from a buddy who has done it before, it honestly not as hard as i thought. It took us 5 hours to do it, just take your time, and pay attention to what your taking off and whatnot.

Go for it! The hardest part (or most annoying) is compressing the springs.
