For both shocks:
This was the most "difficult" part - locate the 2 plastic retainer pins holding the shock, locate the tooth (or tab) holding the pin in place and push the tab in (I had to use some leverage - its stiff plastic covered in grease - a spare screwdriver handle helps to push the tab down).
After pins are removed, shock just pulls out (weight of the tub handled by the suspension springs).
Replace with new shocks (1 pack has a pair), replace pins.
Reinstall motor control unit.
Reassemble frame. reattach water supply lines.
I had to plug in the washer, activate a cycle, then unplug/plug in the washer again.
It helps to have a screwdriver attachment for a variable speed drill to handle all of the screws.
All told - about 45 minutes, most of this spent on removing the pins.
