i finished mine up last week and it took a while because it was my first time. if you dont ahve air tools, it will take alot longer too. all in all with the the springs and camber kit install i would say it took me a good 6 hours, but this was my first time ever doing suspension work. the first side i did in both the front and back took forever and then the other side once you have it down is a piece of cake and only takes 20 min or so. it just takes a while to loosen those damn bolts and learn what to do. half the time was spent trying to loosen bolts without air tools. all in all, i would say that it was a pretty easy install though.

You do not need airtools.
Just make sure to rent spring compressors and buy Tie rod Separator.
