Very nice Joe! Enjoy those PITA front springs, lol. After doing that a few times I was happy to pay the big bucks for coil overs

I wanted so bad to do the coil overs but I just couldn't justify the expense. I did have enough sense to buy the MM spring tool.

Eh. everytime I head into the garage to do something to it...I just end up going for a drive.

I think i'll just tape it on with painters tape and leave it there for a few days and see how it sinks in

Well for you seasoned veterans of fox modding this will be a big yawn, but I'm gonna post it anyway haha. Eibach pro''s going in with some Koni orange shocks and struts and then finally some MM camber plates.

So out came the old crap in the rear which took way longer than it should have since I kinda impulsively jumped in cause I was bored. With my head up my ass and unable to find anything I needed, even running out of PB Blaster I pressed on.

28 year old stuff out and the new stuff in, looks so nice seems ashame to cover it up.

Jersey Joe · Jun 27, 2017

Happy so far with the results, both sides seem the same height anyway, but unfortunately the front will have to wait a little while. My Gal Bladder has decided it need's out so it's surgery this Thursday. Once I'm able it's back at it !

I appreciate the compliment but the only thing I'll take credit for is doing the research, so many guys have put these products to use that help guys like me out tremendously, of course taste and budget play a role too haha.

If it matters Joe, my daughter had her gall bladder removed and she recovered quickly and has minimal issues now.

Not that i'm comparing you to a 28 year old girl or anything.......

They took it out this morning and I gotta tell ya, pretty friggin sore. 28 year old girl probably complained less about the pain.

It sucks for a few days but after that mine was pretty much ok. Have to take it easy for awhile though. Don't get over ambitious. Good luck!

I hear ya, just a lousy time of year to be laid up, but that's what I get for not taking care of it sooner.

Well it's been a week since my surgery and it was time to get the show back on the road, pulled the old stuff out without issue but tied a strap to the coil just in case

Jersey Joe · Jul 7, 2017

Cleaned out all the crap sitting in the control arm, got the spring in after many many curse words, it seems Eibach pros are fairly tall, after many failed attempts I got a spring compressor from Advanced Auto. It was too long so I cut it down a little bit and it finally worked, hopefully it's not enough of a alteration to the tool that they'll notice haha.

Jersey Joe · Jul 7, 2017

I'd love to take a pic of it sitting outside but It's been nothing but thunderstorms tonight here in Jersey.
