Just did mine. It only took about an hour and a half. I bought the spring remover tool but didn't use it. Mine had been replaced before and my mechanic had used a screw type clamp. I read a couple of DIY guides ahead of time and couldn't understand why Pedro's has you remove the throttle body. I didn't have to touch it. Maybe if you are replacing the top tube?
I used a u-joint and several socket extensions to get the wrench where I could turn it on the mounting bolts.
