spring recomendations
 
I am considering replacing my springs (fore and aft) this summer and was wondering if one has a good brand to use? How hard is it to change the springs?

Are you going to do the work yourself?

Yeah, if its not that hard, i was thinking I would replace the rearend while i'm @ it.

i have eibach springs and tokico blues. i love my setup. its not hard to change them out.. 4 nuts on top, 2 on the bottom, brake caliper off, compress the spring, take it apart, new spring on, uncompress, reverse.. dont.. the rear is ever easier.. dont even have to take the wheel off.

Jalvord, changing springs is pretty easy and only take an hour or so if you rent a spring compressor.

I think the real question is what are you planning for your car? Are you going to keep in on the street or make a track only car, or something in-between?

You may want to decide what you want and then get springs that match that application.

My car is going to be pretty much a street machine, I was going with some progessive springs, not stiff, but not totally stock
