I bought a pair of new rear coil springs that have a 2" drop to level the truck off and my truck is a 2007 chevy avalanche. What's involved?

Raise and support vehicle by frame. Support axle housing with jack. Disconnect electronic ride control wiring. Disconnect shock absorber and lower suspension until spring is unloaded. Remove spring.
