Wasn't too hard the biggest problem i ran into was not being able to break the back botom bolts lose.. so i ended up destorying and replacing the bushing. I would suggest spray it with lube a couple days prior to doing this.. and do it repeatedly... other then that its pretty simple.. lube and a haynes, chiltons, etc will be your best friend

Alignment is different on every single car. Just get it checked once you install

You really should install some aftermarket shocks with those springs, though.

i have the h&r sport springs on stock shocks on my 94 accord . when i went to get my car aligned, the spec came out to be between -1.5 & -2.0 all around . it took about 2 hours to install with a friend .

Yeah just get the Haynes and a spring compressor. Both can be had at Autozone.

I thought it was a huge pain in the ***, not terribly difficult by technical means, just more time consuming than I wanted.

https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1151772 thats the outcome after install...

but for rears alot of people have broken bolts, so have a pair ready just in case... and its always good to change it out since youre down there anyway... i would change the boots also.
