Eibach Install
Since the search is down I figured id try my local guys to see if anyone has done a spring install on our cars before. I picked up a new set of eibach pro kit springs for $120 bucks off a guy, I was just going to re sell them and make some money but since they are not to aggressive of a drop I figured to just install them and see how I like them.
I have a jack and about every tool I should need, but just seeing if there are any tricks or trade secrets to this job. The one thing I do not have is a spring compressor so I guess if I have to have one im SOL. If thats the case anyone have one I can borrow for a day? Thanks for any advice or tips!

You wont need a spring compressor, there is really not enough compression on the stock assembley.
There is a how to write up somewhere on here that I used to do mine and another members.
If I had to do it all over again I would just take it to 2nrwerks to have Todd knock it out while I watched and stayed clean

Selina's(My GF ) brother just installed springs and shocks on his car. He bought a spring compressor for the job and planned to return it pretty soon. If you've decide to DIY, let me know before it's too late.
