Hey can anyone tell me how difficult is it to change rear struts and what tool are needed thanks.

It isn't too bad.
If it hasn't been done in a while, then there might be a problem getting the end links off of the shock body. I had to cut mine off the first time.
You'll probably need a breaker bar, a couple 19mm sockets, the top nuts are 12 or 14mm, an allen wrench set (for the end links), and an open/box end wrench (14 or 15mm).
Best if you have a helper, as wrestling the strut out can be a bitch with one person (though it can be done).
