Installing new suspension...

Later this week I will be getting my Eibach's and Tokico's from Southwest Autoworks, and will be doing the install myself. I found the webiste (searching) about how to change the suspension, and will most likely end up using that when I screw up and get stuck. I was just wondering if there is anything I should change while the springs and shocks are off, and if you guys had any tips for while I am changing them. Thanks.

check your suspension bushings, strut mounts and bearings, replace your dust boots and bump stops. I think thats it.

oh and maybe get an adjustable bar for the front parallel link on the rear suspension in case you ever want to adjust the camber.

Re: Installing new suspension...

From what I recall people saying while replacing the suspension also replace all the bushings in there. But I think if you search it should tell you everything you should look at to replace when putting in a new suspension
