How hard?

D-Brow · October 25th, 2007, 02:56 PM

for someone that's not the best mechanically, would putting lowering springs on a 2001 v6 mustang be to difficult for me? Because i had originally planned on doing them myself, but i was told that the front spring in particular on my model of mustang is a bitch to do...

ok, i'm not sure yet, i'll have to talk to my friend about doing it ourselves, but just in case, what would you say it would cost to have them installed by a shop?

I wouldn't know.
I have always just installed them

i've done springs twice on my car and once on my buddy's cobra. the first time i did it on my own, it took me awhile. and it definitely helps to have an extra set of hands. once it was all done though, i felt good knowing that i was able to do it myself and i knew that i had saved money instead of paying someone to do it...

yea, it's definately a good feeling doing it yourself. Everything on my car has been done by myself so far with the exception of the paint on the front and rear bumpers.

I did mine, but if you have no mechanical skills Id at least have someone help you.

I did mine with the help of a friend. took us 3 1/2 hours to do all 4.
