alrighty...... lets get this thing started things you will need 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, and 19 mm deep sockets..... just nice to have rachet powerdrill (just to make labor easy) jack, 2 jack stands wd-40 for those fiesty bolts 2 zip ties (for brake lines) ___________ crack the bolts on the front wheels jack up the front jack point and put the two jack stands under both front jack points remove the front wheels remove the 2 bolts holding the brake line first..... then remove the bolt on the shock step on the rotor/calpier with all your weight to disloge it from the shock remove the 2 top bolts it takes quite a bit of shimy'ing and stepping on the rotors etc to finaly be able to get it out of there, but dont give up, youll come up with a system. this is , where i had my pickle........ i wasnt sure how to assemple the coilover, so i found a daigram that helped....assemble your coilover like so (thanks aerospeed) shove that thing back in there and when you get it placed correct, used a jack under the rotor to put it into the shock to make a good ... seal? if your shocks dont have a bracket for the brake lines, you can use a zip tie. bolt it all in REAR same as before, jack it up......... put a jack under the shock and remove the bolt holding it into the control arm, also remove the bolt on the brake drum.... remove the bolts on top pull the control arm down and pull that guy out now for puttin it back in, make sure you have the built in bold at the bottom of the shock facing front...... i did not and took me a good half hour to get nowhere because you canot used those bolts like that. i found it easier to jack up everything into place and slide the bolt in, then tighten NOW YOUR DONE now lower it and check your levels, and jack up the car and adjust the coilover to get the right hites
