Yea a friend and I did the install. Its a pain in the *** so if you havent done it or done something close to it then dont try it. I had to rent some tools from autozone for clamping the stock springs down. that was the worst part

I just did my pro kit and took a ride and didn't notice any huge difference that i would for sure need to add new shocks/struts but eventually i will be doing them just not right now. Also the install is not hard at all. The only part that intimidates people is the spring compressor you need for the front struts, i just bought one i think it was from amazon for $30 so i have it whenever i decide to do new shocks/struts in the future. I think autozone you can rent them or something, not sure i never checked it out.

Yeah man I love my springs. Ya know you didn't have to take off all the entire brake system and no one would ever know if you didn't paint the back of your calipers. But again, looks nice and I bet ya love the way it feels!!!

Do you know what type of spring compressor do you need for the job? I believe there are two types from the auto parts stores for rent.. However, can't remember the type I need to do the job...
Any info???

After I removed the stocked springs the Eibach Pro's were low enough that I just had my buddy hold the strut upright and put a little pressure on the top of the strut. It gave enough so that we didn't have to compress the Eibach springs saving a little time.

But for the stock springs this is what I used...

Probably off ebay like I did. I don't remember the link, though. Try searching the forums.
