About to install an Eibach Pro kit and Bilstein HD's on my car. Just want to make sure I dont have any problems. I found this write up-does this look about right? Any other tips that might help?

Thanks in advance for any help,

Erik

I just did this (no springs) myself about a month ago. The worst of it will be getting the nut off of the top of the shock. I ended up drilling the shock rod out and breaking the nut off. It will be nasty and rusted on there.

Follow the guide, and you shouldn't have too much of a problem.

Good luck.

Thanks for the reply. Your right-getting the nut off was the worst part. Took about 8 hours but I got it done (not bad considering I didn't really know what I was doing). The rears were a piece of cake, fronts were another story
