What is involved with replacing front shocks on a Nissan Pathfinder LE 2000?

I've never tried replacing something like a shock before, is this something that is extremely involved? Can it be done at home in the garage?

    Does it have shocks or struts? Struts are usually inside a Coil spring, shocks are usually not...

    If shocks, you can pretty easily do it yourself..Not sure what all is involved, but shocks are usually not too hard.

    Struts are a different story. You need special spring compressors to remove the coil spring before you can install the new strut...If you don't know what you're doing, you can hurt yourself.
