Undo the two bolts on the back of the hub, push the hub/bottom arm away from the bottom of the shock, then undo the top mount, remove and replace with the coilover. It's a really simple job if you just look at it first to get your head round it. Though saying that most of the nuts are a b***h to undo without an impact wrench.

your all forgetting the important bit, before the coilies go on you MUST take the assister springs out and wind the adjuster as far down as you possibly can.
