it can be a time consuming job but its doable the hardest part is removig the track rod ends. you will also need the car on axle stands and make sure yu get new bolts as these are stretch bolts i always did i could also do it for a price m8 if interested if not you will need a torx e18, 18 mm spanner and ratchet 13mm to drop the exhaust a bit nd the subframe needs removing

ooh i could do these with air tools in around 30-40 mins but it s harder without them and with a diesel it may take a bit longer as it is tighter to twist the rack with that engine m8
