Vuong's Garage, or you could try to figure it out yourself if you're somewhat mechanically inclined?

werd ^, where you stay? i can come do it today or tomorrow
just do it yourself. you dont need that many tools. If you have Wrench, Breaker Bar, Spring Compressor, Balljoint Remover,Jack your good. and you can rent those at Advance auto and get your full refund back after you return it.

A tool used to remove the Ball joint? its where the lower control arm and the coilover connects at. sometimes its stuck together there so you need to get the ball joint remover. looks like this:

everyone has their own opinions on what works best for splitting the ball joint and LCA, fork and hammer usually are the causes of busted boots but are cheaper and much easier to find if in need of one. The high tech, fancy BJR is much pricier and may be a little complicated to use for the average joe to use
