    Any interest in this? I dont have a place. I have new coilovers (5100 and 885 springs) and LR UCAs on the way, and an AAL and shocks (5100 and single deaver AAL) in the rear. Need some local knowledge from some people that have put this stuff on. I am somewhat mechanically inclined, but never done a suspension.

    I would not mind helping out depending when, I am pretty busy at work with no sign of slowing down.

    Will the coilovers be assembled already, with new top hats? I don't have a spring compressor so that could be an issue. I don't have a garage, but I have a flat driveway and plenty of tools.

    Alright cool, it is much easier with them assembled. Spring compressors can be nerve racking.

    If nobody with a garage or better schedule chimes in, I would have to do it on a Sunday. Anybody that wants to help/hangout is welcome.

    I have to work, but if you hit a snag, message me and I can come by late afternoon. There are plenty of write-ups in the forum to study, and make sure you have everything you need. It's really not a hard job, once you figure out one side, the other is easy.

    Thank You. Ive been through all the install threads and youtube videos, doesn't seem too bad, we will see :) Will pick up a ball joint separator at harbor freight and a couple size sockets / wrenches I dont have. I am taking friday off to get a head start on it. I think I can do this ! UCAs in hand as of today, balance should be here Thursday.
