You will need to pull the drive axles out to do it. I would do all 4 upper and lower on both sides. I would think $200-$300 dollars should cover the parts. Buy mooge there gaurenteed for life. You will need some forkes to pop the tie rod ends and the ball joints. I can tell you torque specs for the spindle nuts and such if you decide to go for it! I did mine and it took about 4-5 hrs.
