How long am I in for?

I'll do it in 2 hours, for 150 bucks if you were in FL. LOL

Um...maybe just the rear of the car. I doubt anybody could do 4 springs, 2 shocks, 2 struts, uppers and lowers, with replacing the axle bushings in 2 hours. I know you just did some of this to your ride (I have been checking around for tips and tricks). Anybody care to put time estimates on each? I'll let you know how long each took just for the hell of it.

Wow 7 views and 6 comments.....I should mention that I will be doing this in basically a machine shop (with more tools than you can imagine) and also in a pit...not under jacks and stands. We have 3X6 boards that run across the pit for jacking if needed. So I might have a slight edge being in a pit. Also going to try and weld up TQ boxes while I'm in there.


Main goal for the Saturday is the rear....if it goes smoothly then start the front.....If not gears are going in the first weekend in May so I will tackle the front then if I don't get it done.

Project went great, we took about 4 hours but did some different stuff.

We installed the Steeda uppers, changed the axle busings, Pro 3i lowers, Eibach Pro springs, Energy Suspension spring isolators, retorqued Trick Flow intake, and the best of all welded the torque boxes in the rear. The only problem I had was one of the lower bolts was pretty much welded to the sleeve in the control arm. I will have some pics updated in my domain page soon. I'm going to do the front springs and shocks when I change my gears in May. I'm pretty happy with the install overall.
