Spring Installation Help
Does anyone know of any good/cheap places to get my springs installed around the San Diego area or can anyone around here help me out with the install?

I don't really want to mess it up after I buy parts and then still have to pay for an install and not be able to drive my car haha. The hardest thing I've ever installed on a car is a cold air intake which is simple

i do hear what HOSS is saying and i do agree in most circumstances. you buy tools once for the price of labor and you can still use the tools again in the future.

i would take it to a shop then unless you think you are mechanically inclined. also, i don't know if i would try to tackle the job without an impact for the top strut nut.

I'd agree with Hoss about doing it himself as the front springs are very easy to get out. BUT, the rear springs could be a pain as my LCA bolts were seized in and had to use an angle grinder to cut the bolts out.
