Install

[stonecold]

So I'm getting Sean's SRT8 shocks, struts, and springs, and was wondering if anyone on here can help install them. I've never done it before and would like to be involved with it.

Greg could probably give the deals on what's involved. I don't think it's that hard, I think the only trick is I think your going to have to rent a compression tool to compress the springs. I think that's the only tricky part.

I'm willing to help you out, but not sure on how soon I would be able to.

Thanks for the info, If you could help out that'd be great.

Awesome! Wish I could drive all the way up there to help, but alas, my car needs to stay somewhat hidden for now.

Springs are a pretty straight forward install. You will need a spring compressor (rent from Auto Zone) and air tools would be a huge help.

This is one of the best write ups I have seen on this subject.

It will most likely be a Saturday for me, your more than welcome to come up as far as I'm concerned. We'll keep you posted

Went down to drop off my Pred to Dave for Karl to write me a tune and we hope to have the last bracket machined this week so it could be as soon as next weekend X fingers, when Dave and I pull the SRT8 suspension I am planning on leaving it as intact as I can to make putting it in StoneCold's car easier.

[stonecold]

I'll let ya know, It'll be on a saturday.

If you have a couple cars, or want to get a small group together I can come up with all the tools needed for this as well. Even better if someone has a portable air compressor.
