Returning to stock VX suspension

As some of you know, i will soon be attempting to take the lowered springs off my vx and put the stock ones back in. I have received some general advice, like to lube the bolts the day before to make removal easier, get a spring compressor, use an impact wrench. I will do this. However I have not looked at the service manual yet so i dont know the procedure. (I think i will get it online in the next few days). Has anyone done this to a civic? Is it as simple as it seems: Jack up car, put on jackstands, remove wheel, compress springs, loosen bottom shock bolt, remove top shock bolt, remove strut tower, replace spring?

or am i in for surprises?

thanks,
James
