Also I am not sure you need coil spring compressors, you would only need them if you were going to reuse the old top mounts which is pointless.

i knew you were going to say that!! f**k u! :D :D :D

haha, no but i have taken longer as i did strip all the parts off refurb them and replace lots with new parts.

as for cutting corners, same applies to coilies, use new uprated top mounts! (just to link with the topic :D )
