I can't lift the thing anymore. How hard of a job is it?

If you attach a picture we can see how it's installed and let you know how much work you're looking at.

Not a job for a first timer.  We've got a jig and a 30" cheater that we use and it's still pretty **** hard.  You have to put a tremendous amount of torque on those springs before you put them in.  VERY CAREFULLY is how you do it.
