Question Any special tips for spring install?

Im getting my eibach pro-kit on tuesday and I was wondering for you guys that have installed the springs for yourself was there any problems that you ran into that might hold you back for an extended period of time?

I've been doing a lot of searching and I got a bunch of info on the install itself, and I feel comfortable with the install cause' I did the coilovers on my integra but I ran into a couple of problems then.

Just trying to get a heads up maybe if theres a couple of things that I should know before doing the install.

I really dont want to shell out any money to have a shop install them I have all the tools and shit so let a homie know.

if you're using standard spring compressors, I would rec getting a hold of 2 impact guns to save time and energy.

If you don't have the tools to do it yourself, get them installed professionally. Also since you got the same kit I do. Make sure you get a camber kit for all 4s, and get a wheel alignment as well. It drops the car pretty substantially and you'll notice negative camber if you don't get a kit for it.

I got an SPC camber kit and so far it works really well.
