Going to be imstalling springs today Any pointers?

Hey, so im going to.be installing my tein s techs today, I read over thr DIY about 10 times and I think I got it but is there anything I should look out for? Any problems that I might run into? Im going to spray all the bolts with pb blaster an hour before I start working on it. Anything else I should do? Thanks. This is my first time working on suspension.

Have patients And if you run into trouble don't do anything hasty.

I wouldn't recommend that unless you were an actual doctor of sorts.. Patience, however...

But seriously, take your time, double check your work. A torque wrench is your friend.

Separating the tie rod from the strut is prolly gonna frustrate you.. Just a heads up.. Last time I separated my tie rods to adjust my suspension's height, I tore the boots on both of them, and that was while using a tie rod separator, no less..
