How difficult to replace rear struts on 2002 Toyota Camry?

So I heard a clunking one night and then a piece of steel drop on the pavement. It was half a ring of my passenger rear spring somehow?

The car clearly sits about an inch lower on that side. How much of a pain is it to replace those rear strut assemblies? Any buying recommendations?

They're probably the original struts, but I'm surprised they would simply break in one spot!

Thanks! It just seemed time-consuming to me, definitely an afternoon of work. I was also concerned about needing a second person, but I think it should be alright.

And watching one video a guy seemed to have problems with that sway bar nut.

Thanks for the link to the Rock Auto discount -- looks like it expired yesterday. Is there a current or ongoing one for TN users?
