Why would you want to replace them?
They are the one thing I deeply regret ever touching, it's a horrid job.

I replaced the ones in mine because the back was sagging especially the
right side.  I put squareback ones in and I love the way it sits now.
Another good thing about it was it did make the ride harsh like I thought it
would since I heard the SB ones are a little stiffer. You right though it is
a hard job but it helps when you have several teenage boys to help with the
grunt work.
