    Just remember you'll need to use a spring compressor. I've done all my lifts, and swapped out new struts on the car too. Next is helping a buddy replace his shocks on his truck. DIY is the way to do, takes a bit more time but once you know how you'll know how to do 90% of all shock,coilover, strut swaps.

    Really? I drove by there a couple days ago and could've sworn they were open.

    Oh and I second DIY. You will learn a lot and get to see how things work down there. Not sure if you saw that there is a mod day this Saturday. Although I'm not too sure what Seth has lined up for lifts, could be booked.

    You can always set up an install at your place and invite fellow TW members. I'm sure we can get a couple folks to help you out, including myself depend on my schedule.
