You have all you need.

All you want to do unless you already have the spring on the shocker, in that case its just the top 2 bolts and the 2 behind the wheel above the disk.

You need:

Dog legged, Goose necked, (whatever you want to call it) 19mm spanner.

Hex key

Spring Compressors

Then its just a case of taking the top plate off of the shock, with the spring compressors on the spring, putting the new spring on, bolting the top plate back on, then bolting the shock back on.

Repeat on the other side.

Spring compressors are about ?25 from halfords or about ?15-20 from a local motor shop.

Hope that helps
