Im in Syracuse, Ny. Never installed shocks and coilovers before and dont have the tools to do it. And id rather not take it to a shop if I can avoid it, (plus id like to learn how for future reference). If anyone is willing to help ill buy ya some dinner or something to compensate. Its for my EG.

Thanks.

Help me !

 

Bump!

 

Buy me a ticket and I`ll handle it

 

If you willing on getting yourself some tools or borrowning some tools. I can get you some pictures and some detail on what to do. It's pretty easy.

 

I would've asked for a ticket too, but somebody already beat me to is

 

You can do it yourself. All the tools are standard type tools except for spring compressors and there's nothing unusual, just bolt on type stuff. Lots of work though. Be careful with the springs.

 

Ive heard the theres a bolt on the rear shocks that tends to always break off and has to be drilled out and **** ..

Im just looking for someone whos somewhat local whos done it before that would be willing to help. Just in case I happen to do something wrong. I want everything to go smooth .

 

Anyone ..?

 

yeah the rear strut bolts almost always seize up, they did on mine, you might have to but the bushings too if the head breaks, i think total the replacements costed me like 36 dollars from honda and i have dealership discount

 

Still lookin for some help ..

 

Come on locals, where you at?!

 

Neeed heeeeeelp

 

To the top.

 

come down here and ill do it for ya. im in felton delaware

 

Bump again ..

 

Before bed bump

 

you might be right about the bolt thing, but it's probably rare or something. I've done it for three of my cars and about 2 of my friends. Never had that happen. I also use the 5-point sockets instead of the 16-point, just so I don't strip the bolts. Now the thing about having an experienced person help you....well if I had a bolt break it's get out the handy drill out or I'm about as stumped as u

 

Still looking for help ..

 

"YOU CAN DO IT"

honestly, its not that hard at all just did mine yesterday. pretty straight forward

 

Im sure I probably could do it.

Im just looking for some help, and someone whos done it before for some reassurance.

 

im kind of a local, but anyway im in the same boat as youm
my suspensions gonna come in in a few and i dunno what i
am going to do about installation

 

i would totally help you out, but i so busy with my on stuff, i can't do **** on my own car..

bump for guy you could use a helpping hand

 

It isn't that hard. With my 1st car, a 1997 Honda Accord EX, I did them in 6 hours with hand tools and a manual compressor for all 4. It's pretty straight forward. Rent some tools or buy the specific ones you need. If I was still in NYC I would help, but not anymore.

 

Well thanks anyways guys .

Im still lookin for help ..
