Default Installing new springs Q&A?

Finally got some lowering springs that I will be putting in this weekend. I have never worked on Mustang suspension. It is a 99 GT. What can I expect as far as difficulty or any problems I might run into? I use to put air bags on trucks and stuff so I know my suspension..but just not on Mustangs. Is this a big job or should it be fairly simple?

Its pretty gravy if you've done suspension before. you'll need a pry bar to get the springs out of the cups if you don't have a spring compressor

Yeah I already knew I was gonna need a spring compressor. I would like to keep all my teeth. Front should be just like a truck I would think, but the rear I am not sure about? I always worked with leaf springs. What about that back?
