How hard would it be to swap 1LE brakes on my SS?

I'm looking at buying the full 1LE brake setup with the spindles, rotors, calipers etc.

How much spring tension is there on the struts front and rear? I was all ready to do the swap but now I'm beginning to worry about it.

Is it just popping off the knuckles at the bottom of the spindle on the fronts? Using a floor jack to support the lower control arm and just unbolting and transferring the 1LE stuff over to the strut?

On the rears; It appears you remove the nut on the rear hub and slide it out or is the hub attached using a C-clip?

I'm a little lost on the rears but the fronts seem pretty straightforward.
