Default installing new suspension

hey guys i don't own a 06-09 civic but my friend does and im gonna help him install his new lowering springs. i've never seen your guys' suspension set up before.

is it the same as all the other older model civics? bolted up through the shock tower. connected to the front forks and rear lcas? and lcas to the hub?

anything else we should know before continuing? thanks

fronts are pretty straight forward...make sure you put the right spring on because they are side specific.

rears are pretty easy as well. it is a lot easier if you disconnect the swaybar, but it isnt necessary.

It's pretty straightforward. The only odd part for me was the access to the top mounts on the front of the car. Try not to drop any nuts. If you do, it is helpful to have a long magnet handy.
