Icon3 Someone plz help with my koniY/GC!!

I've never done a suspension before and the two people that have said they would help have backed out numerous ****ing times Please please please someone in WI Pm me and tell me you know someone that will TEACH me how to completely assemble and install my koni yellows with Ground control coilovers!! I've tried studying the instructions and looked over some DIY threads but the knowledge still evades me! I'm willing to pay $100 after the damn job is done just so you can point and explain what I need to do!

Do you have the special Ground Control sleeves or the regular ones? The special ones you slide right onto the Konis, the others you have to set on top the lower shock mount. Spin the adjustment ring down, put the spring on, trim a half of the bump stop off and put on the shock, put a thick washer on the rod of the shock, put the top hat on, the other washer and then put a nut on the shock. Grab the rod of the shock with vice grips at the very top where it won't go into the shock. Tighten the nut down tight, then the other nut. Now spin the adjustment ring of the collar up to as high as you can get it by hand.

If you have problems still, post pictures of the parts you have and put numbers by them and I can tell you what order to put them on. PM if you do this, I won't check back otherwise.

thanks, I'll read this 50 times first while looking at my parts.. then I'll just pm you pretty sure it's the special ones from what I understand..
Edit: no, I think they are the normal ones.
