Replacing Shocks

[Spoonman]

On my 05 Sierra with coil springs, is there front end disassembly involved? Or do you just jack up the front wheel off the ground high enough to get to everything? Is it more than I want to do having not done any front end work before?

No suspension disassembly required. Just jack it up and let the suspension drop. Unbolt the shock and swap it out. Use jack stands so that you don't become a statistic.

Amen to Jack stands. The shocks are inside the coil springs, they will actually come out as well or allow enough space to change the shocks?
