cranny Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 i got skunk2 springs off ebay for $120 american without shipping. if you cant do it yourself it will prolly cost you 150 anyways to pay a mechanic to do it for you. and go for the 2" drop if you want my opinion.

96civichatch Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 Your not gonna become any more "auto-savvy" by not doing it yourself, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xalexjx@yahoo.com Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 as long as you have a tourch and a set of metric wrenchs you can do it your self, remeber depending on how carroded they are you may have to use excessive heat and (melt out the old bushings) you may or may not have to depending on the shape its in, just letting ya know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THanks for all the advice guys! if you can't install lowering springs, then i guess the only thing easier than that is installing an intake. so you're gonna be paying a lot of installation costs.... a torque wrench is good to have too, if you don't have one you can rent them for about $10 a day from your local hardware store.
