I recently done the front and the rear refresh. It was well worth it.
I did not replace the tie rods as they were in good condition.
I found the tie rod boot got in the way so if you replacing that take that off 1st.
The video is great help
I used spring compressor while the strut out the car to make life easier.
Finally you will need something to expand the clamp holding the strut. Some people use screwdriver or crow bar. I used this and strut just pulled out effortless.
