Rotors aren't difficult, it's getting enough leverage to take the caliper bolts off was a problem I ran into. Might have to bust out a breaker bar for it.

There's a DIY for springs in shocks in the FAQ forum:

https://acurazine.com/forums/acurazine-news-3/

It's also linked from the info sticky in the general 2G CL discussion forum...

If you're going to do the springs, it might be wise to do the struts at the same time, especially if you've got alot of mileage on your CL.

I've got 58K on my CL, and if I do springs, I'll probably go with the H&R and tokico blues...

Not worth the labor to do just the springs, and then have to go back later, and take the springs out again to do the struts at a later date
