camber kit will be needed if going lower than 2 inches i believe.

ummm.......I say maybe 4-500 in parts, shocks /springs, and another 200 maybe for labor.

Don't even do that! Buy a manual and do it yourself. I did mine in about the span of two days and I had a good few problems (shocks didn't want to let go of mounts, had to replace upper control arms). Assuming you have no problems, you'd be able to do it with a full day of work. Don't pay someone else when you can easily do it yourself. You'll be proud of yourself! :thumbup:

Yes a camber kit will be needed. I'll post on here in a couple of days after I find out what kind of adjustments they had to do to the camber when they align my baby. OH YEAH! YOU WILL NEED AN ALIGNMENT! Let the springs settle for about a week and then take that baby in to a shop to have it aligned. Don't even try this one yourself.

i aggree with nemo, do it urself and i bet it will take u much less than him for sure lol easy job u just need one more person with u and tools which u can get from autozone for free, i dont think u need manual since is all logical stuff. shocks and springs comes with the paper u need to know before installing.


(shocks didn't want to let go of mounts, had to replace upper control arms). thats just funny lol

oh yeah becareful with front springs/shocks they compress they will take anything down.

I was saying buy the manual for torque specs. I'm kinda anal about doing it just like the shop would.

You're very right about making sure to compress the springs too. Again....covered in the manual.

And if I'd had someone else helping me, it would've taken a day even WITH the problems I ran into. Too bad nobody in this shit hole town knows how to tune a firggin car. Well....there's a couple ricers, but like I said, nobody knows how to tune a car!
