about to swap out my springs. I got some urethane isolator bushings while i was at it. Basically, the long isolator just wraps around the spring correct? anything special i have to know??? Do i just follow the stock bushings? I got both front and rears.

Yeah, idiot question, but its my first attemp. Only way to learn i say.

Thanks!!

easy

i just did my front and rear isolators and the best thing i could say to do would be to take some electrical tape and tape the isolators in place on the springs. makes life a heck of a lot easier when you go to put them in. if your putting in lowering springs, putting them in is a piece of cake. just make sure when your taking apart the front end that you take the calipers off on both sides and then the sway bar on both sides. leave the spindle on the hub, no point in taking it off if you dont have to. unbolt the tie rods on both sides and throw a jack under the a arm and lower the spring out very slowly. the rear end can be done by just unbolting the lower control arm and supporting it with a jack and lower it down. do one side at a time or else your going to throw off the pinion angle and you will have to jack up the rear end in order to get the lower to line up again. hope this helps.

thanks! Worked great. I love the new stance of the car and the ride isnt that bad. But i am running stock struts and shocks. Illuminas and cc plates come next month! Just getting it ready for the queen mary show.

Thanks!!
