Jim,
WOW!!! After reading j-d, I hope your chassis is a Chevy.
Because the extended shock is slightly longer than the spring, I drove the front wheels of the RV up on a couple pieces of 2' X 10" under each wheel. Leveling blocks will do.
Then on each side, I removed 2 bolts on the lower A arm and one shock nut on the top of the spring. The shock then drops out.
Insert the new shock and the bottom bolts, then reinstall the top nut.
Drive off the blocks. That's all there is to it.
