awesome, you're gonna love those shocks man

 

alright so time for an update. I got most of the stuff in between yesterday and today, the only thing i am missing is the lca bolts and springs which are supposed to come tomorrow. Hopefully I am gonna be able to get it done this weekend cuz i have most of saturday and all day on sunday.

heres what I got so far (obviously just one of each thing in the pic):

 

looks like you got it covered preatty good. good luck with the swap! hopefully ya dont have any seized bolts, just be sure to antiseize all the suspension bolts to prevent future problems.

 

nice. i recommend getting some KYB dust boot covers to replace the stock ones, they are ribbed so that they can compress with the spring and strut. the stock ones will probably squeak on a lowered car.

 

my 99 dust shields were ribbed kinda like a acordian. tho they will only compress so much.LOL i had to practicaly cut them all the way down on my new suspension. only problem with my old Stech springs was the dust shield did wear some of the paint off one strut.

 

ugh, my own thread hates me

 

the shocks came with new dust boots and bump stops for the rear, but i'll just have to use stockers on the front

 

well i didnt have enough time to do the work this weekend, but i do have everything in now and hopefully i'll have time soon. i'll keep you guys updated when i get around to doing it.

 

nice hatch, my boy just got rid of his. well i think the setup you listed above is good. check out the skunk2 pro-s or pro-C;s those are also very good kits. i personally have the Pro-C's, and there so far the best setup i've put on my car. check out my posting below for mods and pics

 

alright so i'm gonna be doin the suspension tomorrow as soon as i get off work, which will be about 130ish. So i'm gettin pretty excited about getting everything on the car, but i'm definetely not looking forward to the heat of my garage.

I went and rented a torque wrench, spring compressors, and a ball joint fork from auto zone yesterday, and also got some cotter pins and some anti-seize. So I think I got everything I need to just knock it out and not have to go get anything in the middle. And while I was at O'reilly getting the bushings out of the new front LCAs, I decided to buy a 2 ton floor jack. So that should make things a little easier.

Also took some before pictures this mornin so that I can compare it to after I get the new stuff on. But keep in mind that I already have lowering springs on the car so it shouldnt drop more than another 1/2 inch. but I wnated to take the pics anyway so here they are.



the front wheel (three full fingers)



and the back wheel (more like 2 and a half fingers



and all the stuff thats goin on the car
