AsianPride, we could definilty do it ourselves. I might have all the means necessary to do it, including the spring compressor! The rears are definilty a 100% bolt on application, the fronts, well, a little work is required.

Ok man...well you got my number...and I have attempted to understand the DIY out there..but F#ck it sounds kinda messed..but yeah...give me a call and we will do it together...cuz I know what we need a spring compressor..cuz those things have like 800lbs of pressure on them..and will come flying off with we let them out without compressing them first....

I've never used a spring compressor to get springs off of a Honda.....and nothing has ever come of and hit me....not even close......but on some you need the compressor to get the spring back on

well a couple of pointers.....hmmmmm.......well the rear is very basic so there should be no trouble here......but make sure you note the position of the two top studs with the 14 mm nuts on them they will be at about a 30degre angle to the bottom shock bolt, you must have the spring hat in perfect allignment to put the rear back together.....as for the front the spring hat has 3 studs these can be very hard to allign again when putting the front back together. so just put the nut that holds the spring hat on finger tight put everything back together then tighten the strut nut properly....this way you can make small adjustments if everything doesnt line up again.......

well good luck


Just as a side note this will take me about 45 mins to install springs all the way around, with a hoist and air tools....so dont let anyone tell you it should cost $250
