[QUOTE="danielson631, post: 689058, member: 11543"] i decide to install mine and i didnt even have the right sockets. i went to autozone and picked up i think it was 3/8 drives 15mm, 18,19 and 21mm? something along those lines give or take one. whatever write up you use should have all the tools needed. if its your first time installing springs do it somewhere that incase you get stuck, you can leave it overnight. and as far as a spring compressor, safety wise its a good idea, but i didnt use it. make sure when your lowering the a arm you do it nice and slow and make sure the spring is fully decompressed when you go to take it out. soak the ISO in pb blaster a while before it will help a lot. that goes with just about every bolt. the pb blaster will be your best friend along with air tools if you have access to them. oh and when your done give it a week or so and make sure you get an alignment.
