    question for the coilover users....

    was it hard to install your coilovers or was it basicly the same as installing lowering springs?

    basically its the same process but if you are reusing the stock shocks then your gonna have a few more steps in taking them out. don't forget the spring compressors otherwise your in for a surprise

        Are you installing a full coil over or sleever over? Its gonna be the same as installing lowering springs for a sleeve over type. A full coil over is easy as hell the only problem is getting everyone to the same height so I recommend haveing a tape measure handy and get every one as close as possible then when you throw it on the car make the final adjustments there. Spring compressor is not hard to use at all. At the shop im pretty sure you got the press down types which are 10x quicker. Reinstalling shouldnt be hard because everything is basically already compressed so you just put it back in bolt it up and adjust to your liking.
