Default new suspension for '90 rover w/2" lift

So people, I just ordered a new suspension package for my rover, and I was curious as to how difficult this job can be to do at home with some usual tools, or if there are any unforseen tricks or hurdles that may pop up in attempting to do this! I am not a complete novice, I have worked on most of my vehicles in the past, but the only suspension I have ever replaced was the struts on my 88 mazda! It would be nice to have any extra insight before I attempted this one. Oh, and the kit is supposed to give the rover a 2" suspension, if that makes any more difference. Thanks! I appreciate any help or comments!

It's easy all basic hand tools and common sense really. A spring compressor may come in handy though.

Will want a floor jack and at least one jack stand.
Who's lift are you looking at buying?

Hey, thanks for the advice! It seems straight forward enough, but you never know! The kit I purchased is the Terrafirma pro sport HD. Now I just have to find the time to start wrenching on it!
