Has anyone fitted lowering springs themselves ?

Had the wheels off today to have a nosey before my springs turned up. Front looks pretty standard apart from the special spline head bolt.

Am I right in thinking the rear shock stays in place and you just compress the spring, lift out and swap it over ?

Any other special tooling I've missed or tips to make life easy ??
 
Not fitted myself, but was present whilst mine were fitted. Yes, the rear shock can remain place. Took 2guys just over an hour to do mine.

Just get the 4 wheel alignment checked afterwards as it'll likely need some adjustments - mine did.
 
I just paid a garage £25 per corner. So much easier aha
