Can you do it yourself?

Possible with skill — requires spring compressors, proper jack stands, and alignment tools. Rear shocks are simpler than front struts.

Tips before you pay

Always replace struts/shocks in pairs (both fronts or both rears) for balanced handling.
Consider quick-strut assemblies for the front to save labour and avoid spring compression.
A wheel alignment is mandatory after this repair to prevent tire wear.
