bump please

 

A pair of spring compressors.

The right size metric tools to take off the top mounts and the lower fork.

It helps to have a friend help you out too.

Secure the car on jackstands.

It helps ALOT to have an impact gun to make it easy.

Sometimes getting the top nuts off the shock stem is a BITCH because it can get stuck and just keep spinning with the shock stem. This is where an impact comes in handy.

 

thanks. i am gona have to have friend help me b/c i dont have a compressor or an impact
