I would be very sure of my capabilities before tackling this job. I replaced the lifts on my 560 last year, what a nightmare. Given the choice, I will spend the money on this repair if needed again. Others may say it's not so bad. I had pretty good instructions, tools on hand, proper parts, and it was still a daunting task.
