H&R's and Illuminas are in...
Well it took me a while, maybe 5 hours, but they're in. May i suggest that anyone doing this with the small spring compressor available at sears you also use air tools. Because cranking that thing with hand tools is a b*tch. That was by far the longest part of the install. Oh and a big thank you to housecor for the nice writeup on his site. And now the pics...
Full side shot at stock height http://68.193.150.99:1024/images/max...fullbefore.jpg Full side shot after http://68.193.150.99:1024/images/max.../fullafter.jpg Sorry about the after pics, it was kinda dark when i was done. I'll try to get some better ones tomorrow in the day light. Overall i'm happy with the performance aspect of the setup. I was able to really push it on my short test drive but it is definitely an improvement over the old, crappy stock setup. Hopefully the front will settle a little more because it's still a little higher than i would like. Later, Eric |

Give your springs a week or two. They will settle and will be slightly lower than now.
|
Don't worry, they'll settle - but already, a nice improvement. Glad the how-to was helpful! Anything you found unclear? Good work.

your all set all you need are some wheels and rear swaybar.
looks good |
