Any shop should be able to install the shocks, nothing unique about them compared to "normal" cars.

Rear shocks are super easy, 5-10 minutes each if you have a lift and air wrench.

Front ones can be a pain if the top nut is rusted on, but they can cut the top off with a sawszall if you are junking the shocks anyway...
