  • new record for rear spring install...

    installed rear springs in 7min. 49sec. from the car starting on the ground, getting it up taking old springs out, new ones in, and back down on the ground... didn't even take the rear tires off... just gotta put a little *** into it... i had a little help with the jacking it up, jack stands, and them handing me the shocks... all in all i think it was a success... and i think we did the fronts in a little over an hour...

    Since your so quick why not get on a plane to milwaukee and change mine. [img]smile.gif[/img] they are so wore out that it looks like i have a 3.5 inch drop. everytime I hit the brakes hard the back end bounces up and down so hard that it looks like I got hydraulics

      did you jack up the back end high enough to pop out the rear springs? or did you somehow manage to unbolt the shocks in that record time? either way good job on the speed. front and rears can be done in 2 hours, you just gotta know what you're doing.

        Or front and rears can be done in 6 1/2 hours if you don't know what you're doing (I.E. me) :D

              Yea, that was balls to the wall Merlin tearing it up. I didnt know you didnt have to remove the shocks, I guess you learn something new every day.

                  just jack it up on the pumpkin, put some jack stands, muscle them biatches out, and put the new ones in, and hell yeah i'd do it again for the camera, i bet i could do it faster... maybe under 5min. with a little paractice...

                      Awesome time...

                      On the botls I just cheated, put a jackstand once I had the pressure off the shocks, I put a wrench on it, and used the hydraulic jack to pull Jack the wrench up and get it startd [img]smile.gif[/img]

                      I pulled the rear ahocks completely and put new ones in in about an hour. But I wasn't rushing [img]smile.gif[/img]
