yeah, a spring compressor and a torque wrench......and the factory service manual (Helms).
Pretty much same as other car with same type of suspension setup. Jack up the car, remove the shocks. remove the spring, put in new springs, put shocks back on car, do a alignment and enjoy the new handling feelings!!!
You will need the spring compressor and a torque wrench. FSM is recommended.
cool thanks guys, got the tools, just want to make sure i didnt need specialty tools to get strut bearing off. No worse time to figure that out until you have the struts out ready to change springs.
where is f' ville? I may have to come up there and have you do mine when I get some springs
you don't even need a torque wrench. spring compressor is a must. that's the only 'specialty' tool you'll need. have you looked into coilovers? it's a straight swap (no time wasted on compressing/decompressing) and it can be had for fairly cheap. starts at around $800 for megans and $1000 for buddy club n+
f` ville = fayetteville. Little south of the atl airport.
I'd do coils if it were my car. Friend of a friend's.
Let me know admedlin, dont mind doing them if you have all the stuff you need.
