PostSubject: Shawn's SRT Spring & Shock/Strut Swap   Sun Jan 31, 2010 6:31 pm

We got it all done today, didn't run into any issues, went nice and smooth. Put a nice drop to it what Shawn was looking for.

We started out with all the goodies.


Then proceeded to remove the front Stut/Spring combo and took off the springs using the wall mounted spring compressor, here's a side-by-side of the front springs


Then re-installed the Strut/Springs and buttoned it all up



BAM, fronts done LOL

Onto the rears
Took out the Shocks and Springs


Here's a side-by-side of the rear springs


Then we thru it all in there and buttoned the pass. side up



Then the same for the Driver's side
