Bilstein Sports with H&R springs install questions

Just bought this kit from turner https://www.turnermotorsport.com/p-5...nsion-package/

I have the bently manual and I usually use pelican parts online instructions. Any tricks for this install? looks pretty straightforward. Are there other parts I should replace with the shocks/springs?

Thanks,

One issue I ran into with going aftermarket springs is that the distance for the endlinks changes as you lower the car due to the geometry of how they attach. I ended up going through 3 pairs trying to figure out what was wrong (should've measured, but I was an idiot). I recommend once you have the suspension done before reattaching endlinks, measure from the mount on the swaybar to the mount on the shock to make sure you have the distance required. I went from 11.5 (stock) to 12.8-13.3 adjustable I had my spring prematurely fail on one side due to my lack of measuring.
