I just finished putting on FMS C-springs (took it for the first drive last night).

All I can say is take your time. No buddy is needed jsut take your time and support the car smartly with jackstands.

I totally agree. Always a good idea to have someone around.

A guy in my town died because a jackstand slipped and pinned him under the car. No one was around the area and the report said he didn't die right away....like an hour or two later. NOT trying to use a scare tactic, but that dude would have been OK if he had a friend nearby who could have jacked the car up again with the free one sitting there no more than 3 feet away.
