Default First Spring Install Done!!!

Thanks to Nacy for writing the tech article, Randy for being the Su-spring- being! And Darren for posting the spring article in the Tech section.

Did my first spring install tonight, page by page, word for word, by the tech article. I couldnt have asked for a better how-to description. It took us about an hour, going slow and making sure every step was done right.
The car looks awesome! Thanks for the help guys!

NJ the back two nuts are kinda a biotch to get to on the top of the stuts... and dont drop any they are like $2 each.. belive me I know.. and my dealer had to order them... otherwise.. its a cakewalk as far as installing springs.. no need for a compressor just put a foot on the spring and undo the top hat with a impact and it just flops apart..
