how do i change front coil springs?
my eibachs came in today and i know how to do the back springs, but what about the front? can someone give me some information on this? if you got a webpage that would be great.
also i was wondering if i got to use a spring compressor, and which type?
thanks in advance, this will be my first mod, even though it's not going to make my car quicker...i guess it may be faster in the curves though.

MacPhereson strut (spring) compressor, Torx 50, Chiltons manual will help.
You can tilt the coil over assembly and rotate, after removing end links and moving sway bar out of the way, you do not need to remove the ball joints just be carefull of your brake lines.

Not everything will apply, but Fred/Injuneer's guide will help.
