Gulp, biting the bullet....

The Comptech rear sway bar came in today, it gets installed friday.

The aspec suspension kit arrives in a week, still have not decided
how to get them installed.

The dealer wants a second mortgage on my home to do the
suspension install....

If a camber kit will be required or my wife does not like the
ride I will be in deep do-do.

Any words of encouragement?

Jerry

Ride:
05 RRP 5AT no Navi TL
9 led blue interior lighting
28 percent Formula One Ultimate tinting
Protection Package ( Trunk Tray, Wheel Locks, Allweather Floor Mats)

Do it yourself. Don't waste your money on having them install it. I did both my rear sway bar and the a-spec suspension myself as have many others on this forum. Both jobs require very few tools. You will not need a camber kit for the a-spec. So, save the money and take your wife out to a nice dinner after you finish the work.

I am a dangerous person with a tool in my hand Consequently I have
a minimum number of tools available.

I have also reached the age where crawling around on the ground is getting
to be problematic

If I were 45 years younger, maybe...

I've been thinking about getting the A-spec suspension and rear sway bar also. Its good to hear you can do it yourself. I've even got a brother-in-law with a lift, etc.
