So I am growing ever more tired of looking at this box of springs. My question is to anyone who has installed springs on their own, how long did it take for you to install your springs, and what tools should I have ready. I assume I do NOT need a spring compressor, but whatever else you think I need?
Matt. Also... off topic, but is the ST202 frame the same as the AT200?.. dont laugh if its a dumb question.. im just looking at chassis parts. -------------------- 1991 MR2 - T-tops - Crimson Red - Gen3 3SGTE - Lots of money

Check that the front top spring seating has been installed correctly. The is a marking which says OUT on it and this should be installed facing out towards the wheel.
Clunking noise means the spring is moving in its seating when you turn the steering wheel. This should not happed. |
