Default Advice installing shocks

Getting ready to install the profile low lowering shocks on my fatty.&nbsp\\; Is it really as easy&nbsp\\;as putting the bike on the lift,&nbsp\\;unscrewing the front and rear bolts on each shock and switching shocks and screwing the bolts back in?&nbsp\\;
&nbsp\\;
What about preload adjustment, will I have to mess with that?

Its as easy as putting it on the lift and 4 bolts (sometimes very tight bolts)
&nbsp\\;
Yes you will probably have to firm up the pre load since you will loose travel with the kit.

Even if I am replacing the entire shocks with new shocks?
