Here's a good PDF from Toytec http://www.toyteclifts.com/PDFfiles/05install2.pdf
Don't bother trying to compress the springs yourself. Once you get the front shock assemblies out just bring them to a local suspension shop & have them swap the springs. Good luck.

compressing the spings isn't too bad. as long as you have the right tools, then you're ok. it might take a while, but its not that bad. yes it was honestly the longest part, but it wasnt too hard, just time consuming

here is a post on CT of the install of the front coils:
