Lowering spring how to (on accident)


I can't tell you guys how many times I have seen a post or had someone ask me how to install springs on our cars. It's honestly dang near once a day without being sarcastic.

Well, I stumbled across this little video today while investigating Bilstein shocks and struts. The cool thing is they did the fronts how I explain it to numerous folks, only instead of drawing blank stares now, it's on video. GRC has access to lifts so I was surprised to see them go through the trouble of working on the ground. So here you go, enjoy:

no kidding, but then again if you have the right tools and you dont have to search for them(like i do) then anything is ten times easier.

Fellas, doing it the way they showed takes the job to about 30 minutes. 15 a side and that's workin normal no rushing.. This is how I do them at my house. Almost feel bad takin payment.

I figured this would help everyone, it's not easy to describe in typed words. Their video shows the true ease with which you can do the job..
