After reading johns install thing I still have a couple of questions to the DIY'ers
The top nut on the front since it has very little pressure is that going to be a problem to put back on? Common sense question but not POSITIVE: the rubber ends on the springs go to the top right? im like 95% positive they do. In the Tein thing they recommend getting a new lock nut? wtf is this and do I need it? Do i need alignment? I've heard yes and no. With the money I save I can pay to get it done. Shops in the area wanted ****ing 400 bucks. This post has been edited by Andason: Jun 8, 2004 - 12:09 PM -------------------- i am awesome

im not quite sure what you mean by rubber end? teins come with rubbing tubbing around the springs right?
It will work either way but i have heard there is less noise with the tighter coils at the top because they dont hit together as much. Tein puts the rubber around them though to stop noise when they hit together. --------------------  |
