Okay, I think i know the sqeak problem.

[Hicks]

Hey Hicks, where are you? I've torn my suspension apart, front and rear enough on my '95, and my old '99 that i can do it with one hand behind my back, and my eyes closed. I would be willing to help... in fact, i can damn near tell you all the tools you'll need (sizes included) to tear it all apart. I've never done ball joints, but it seems like the hardest part would be getting to it. i've changed springs on both my Musatngs probably a total of 10 times, i've gotten quite good at it, and can have the front suspension apart, and the new springs in on both sides in maybe an hour if not 45 min.
get a big pry bar, and a jack, once everything is disconnected, you lower the jack(that is putting pressure on the control arm) once it's at it's lowest point you pry the spring out. if it's a stock spring, it's not going to go anywhere without some OOomph behind it, cause it's obviously been in there for years... it's a good time to throw in some lowering springs while you're at it. taking them out and and putting them in, is much easier, obviously cause they're smaller than stock. I got Dropzones off a website for $104 shipped to my front door, and it dropped my car 2"... check this thread for pics... http://www.sn95forums.com/forum/index.php?topic=16559.0

Virginia... i WAS going to be in Atlanta for Thanksgiving, but things have changed. I've got lots of Family in the ATL area... a cousin at Georgia Tech, one at Georgia Souther, an aunt and uncle in Mariette, and an aunt and uncle in Peachtree City. unfortunately i won't be around to help... I'l be doing a spring install on a friends car within the next 2 weeks, i can take pics and document the install if you want, a spring install is the same thing you'll need to do, to get to the lower control arm to remove it.

Nah bro you don't have to go through that trouble, would be a good sticky though for the Garage

Yeah, i guess a how to with pics, would make a good sticky. i thought about that when i installed my JLT, and also my Throttle BOdy, but i never did... oh well, i can always go back and take that stuff off and redo it with pics...

Yea, but we need a good suspension sticky that would pay off really well.
