Strut
Got my new NeuSpeed strut installed this weekend. Didn't give me to maney issues. Had to jack the driver side tire off the ground to get it put in though. The biggest issue I had was torugeing down the bolts, wrench was way to big for my socket.. so had to drive down to the local autoparts store to buy a socket reducer.

Really? The instructions just said to lift the driver-side up if it didn't fit proper.. errr I think thats what it said.. haha
But after lifting the driver side up.. went on w/o issue.

it wont really do much unless you have some other suspension mods. It goes well with sway bars though. If it's your first mod, you wont really feel the difference.

i have the same bar on lowering springs and i felt a difference. not small, not big, just enough to know its better.
i hooked up mine up by jacking up the front of the vehicle. i did have problems fitting the holes onto the bolt slots but took some slack. i raised it high enough so the front wheels are off the ground.
