You need spring compressors to compress the stock spring and then you need I believe an 18-19mm socket for the top to remove the knuckle at the top and then you can remove the spring. Also, there is a self guiding bolt on the bottom of the shock that may snap upon removing it. I had no problem but have read a lot of problems with it. Then once you put it back in you need to hammer it in and it will guide the bolt in to the other side because it goes in on an angle.

I'm actually looking at getting a short ram intake because I live in Vancouver British Columbia (just north of seattle, and south of Skagway, Alaska, and it rains a shit load during the year. Our province experiences the most amount of rain than any other province in Canada. I don't want to suck up any water, and i'm not necessarily looking for a performance upgrade, but rather a different exhaust tone. I'm still paying the suspension off lol, after that exhaust, and intake.

I ordered them from ebay. The seller is Kurumamotoring. I highly recommend lowering your vehicle. It's the best mod that I had the most satisfaction with, and I get compliments all the time. The only thing that bothers me is the mud flaps on the front drag on any speed bumps/humps. It sucks but the handling, looks, and feel improve 100%. It cost me $720.00 for the 4 shocks, and springs, and then the duty fee was 30, and alignment was $100. I live in canada so thats why i got charged duty.

haha thanks man, I figured it out the day I installed them on my car.

You said you lowered the front 1.7 but if you were to lower it 1.5 instead would the flaps still scrap also how does it drive in snow

how do you fit the rear springs on. do you have to take a few parts off the stock shocks
