I finally got my goods (KYB agx's and Eibach Pro kit) and was wondering how every one compressed their front springs to get the top on. Did you use simple spring compressors ,have a good trick, or other......?

Thanks

Thanks Ted any tips on not damaging the finish on the springs, rags piece of inner tube between the compressor and spring?

After all this is the Ice coast and I Hate rust!

Pieces of cardboard will work also, but who looks under the car nowadays?

True true but I think I keep my working parts engine bay under side cleaner than my lac-luster paint job

Oh well I appreciate it when I'm under the car and dirt and oil aren't dripping in my face.

hmm i have done a couple of shocks and springs upgrade on my FC but never went under the car. I have an impact gun and that made everything so easy.

Check out www.shox.com. KYB agx set of 4 cost $ 455.00 and Eibach Pro-Kit $ 209.00. I ordered Tokico HP and Eibach Pro-Kit from them and service was very good.
