Thanks for releasing those spy photos of me participating in modding and such.

As well as doing my sweet slides down your driveway every 10 minutes. No wonder it took us so long to finish it.

Where'd you pick up the spring compressor and how much?
I've seen some cheap ones for 10 bucks but those look more dependable.

Rented it from Murray's for $40, but you get your $$ back when you return it thumbsup

why the hell didn't you use it to compress the new ones when assembling the coilovers? not enough clearance?
Both not enough clearance, and there were two different sized springs, there were smaller one's on top, and we could compress them by hand
