95 accord lx. got the tein s.tech springs in progress. still waiting for shocks (tokico hps).

I could take it to my mechanic, but they charge a lot. But then again I dont have any other tools to install these springs i think. i only got the mm bolts, the jackstand, and i think thats about it. would i need camber kits as well?

 

ha ha...im getting new struts some time and when i do..i'll do a FULL write up w/pics...

but it'll be awhile before i get my new struts...

its pretty easy actually...

 

I did the install and uninstall of them I didn't put them together by myself.

Though that's not too hard of a thing to do either, just need some spring compressors

 

at our shop we used to have contest to see how fast we could install a set of springs on almost any Honda, with air tools it was like 25 minutes, I can tell you how to do them but don't have pictures for you, btw you really don't need a spring compressor to remove the old ones but do need air to to make it easier and another helper when unloading the factory springs.

 

air tools definitely help, the spring compressors (i have manual ones) just help with taking it apart, lowering springs obviously don't need them

Actually, some do. Spring compressors were necessary when I installed Eibach Prokits, Sportlines, and Neuspeed Sports on various vehicles.

 

Hmm interesting, didn't need it at all for my stuff, good info phil

 

It just depends on the springs, and sometimes the car.

 

here are the two threads that i used when putting in my new suspension in my 94 accord.

way to go, i am sure eveything is torqued right and nothing will come loose.

giving advice such as you don't need a compressor for someone never done it before it's just stupid.
