Default Installing my pro-kit today....

Hey guys I'm about to install my pro-kit on my car and I was wondering if anybody else here who has done it could give me some advice on what they did to help it go smoother. One question I did have was what's the deal with the Pinion Snubber? It came with my kit and I've never heard of anyone talking about it on this forum before and is it needed?

Oh and should I wait for the springs to settle before getting an alignment done or just go it whenever?

Ok I don't know what is going wrong but I can't get the strut all the way out of the wheel well. I have the strut back against the wheel well but I can't get it to compress enough to get it to come totally out of the well. I have tried to remove the spring but it's not budging when I pry it. This is really pissing me off and I could really use some help!!!

Ok I got the spring and strut figured out. The mustangworld instructions totally leaves out a part to unbolt but now what is the best way to get the new spring back on? Do you put the bottom in and then push the top on or vice versa? I think the top then the bottom is the right way but I can't get the spring to pop in.
