Looks great Avalanch3! Did you end up going with new camber plates or strut mounts? I have my springs sitting in my room so I am just kinda wondering besides shocks and struts what else I may need

For just the springs - it cost me $500 for the parts, labor, and alignment. A heck of a deal haha.

I used the stock plates, but make sure you check the bearings inside because some may pop out of place, or you can go with new mounts. I used camber bolts for adjusting the camber, and honestly my alignment was not a big deal at all, it was slightly off on toe which was easily adjusted.

Also I'm going to list my supporting mods:

Tokico D-Specs (~$550)
UMI On-Car roto-joint adjustable panhard bar (~$135)
Front/Rear sways (off a GT500, cost me around $100)
Ingall's camber bolts (~$20)
and of course, the H&R Springs (~$250)

Someone could have saved 300 dollars by doing the install themselves

haha

I understand if you aren't comfortable doing it though....it's less than 1.5 hours of work WITH breaks.

I've done a full S197 suspension swap in an hour and 12 minutes with breaks....that includes:
PHB
LCA's
Springs
SHocks
Struts
CC plates
Sways
Endlinks

but it helps that i've done it a bagillionty times

I did the install myself the first time when I got those defunk FRPP springs. The springs were 250 and the alignment itself was near a 100 (one year warranty too.. you'll bet i'll take advantage of that) so I only paid like $150 for the install.. which is not bad at all in my books haha. I installed all the other stuff myself.
