Default Shocks

I am getting ready to replace all four shock absorbers on my 97 Chevy Blazer LT. Before I get started, I was wondering if there was any advice that could be given to prevent a lot of heartache.

I had one hell of a time getting the ones out of my 94 when I did them, but they were original shocks... and it had 180k miles on it.
