Swapping out springs is easy, I think u can just disconnect the mid link and the springs comes right out. If you have a lift you don't even need to remove the wheels I THINK (don't quote me)

The OEM bucket for the springs is much bigger than the SPL midlinks, which is designed specifically for a 65m ID spring

This is why you get all the parts and slap it on together
I actually just went out to look under my car, I see what you're talking about. They basically look like a short handle frying pan and it's holding the spring....You sure that is easier to swap out than the front? Won't that spring come flying out killing someone when you loosen the mid links? Because it looks like it will. The fronts looks like they just pop right out along with the shocks and you don't have to worry about getting killed.
