Im now working on my suspension. I have eibach pro springs.

Im going to get Tokico Illumina 5 way Struts/Shocks and Maximum Motorsports C&C Plates. Good choices? Im paying about $450 for both, there both used but in good shape.

Should I do anything else while im installing this, is it a hard install, any special tools? iv done springs before.

Like should I do control arms at the same time? upper and lower?

replace bushings? which ones?

I pretty much want to know what I might as well do at the same time while my suspension is out.

THANKS SO MUCH!

All I can think of is you need an impact to swap the front struts.

Ok...is $450 a fair price for the C&C Plates and the Struts/Shocks?

Is this local? If so go to his house and take a look at what hes got. Look at the condition of the items and use that to knock the price down. If everything is in great shape like its barely been used just shoot to knock 50 bux off and make it an even $400.
