How accessable are your rear strut tops w/ the stereo in it?? I think that's the main concern. Yeah, you need spring compressors. I have two sets that have basically paid for themselves over the years. For the rear struts, you literally don't need to compress anything. Ask Rolie.
With the springs you have now, compressing it will be minimal and easy. It's not too hard to do at all.

As far as spring install/uninstall is concerned. The rear, all that is required is the removal of the back seats, then you can easily access the struts. I'm sure we can get together and do it!

it's pretty straight forward, the hardest part i think is using the spring compressor

Exactly, since we are all pretty knowledgeable about it, it shouldnt be a problem. Jim, if you want you can do it at my place after the meet/run.

Wishlist!
So what's everyone's next mod?
If everything goes as planned, I might be getting rims pretty soon. If not, then my next mod would probably be front component speakers and amp. Or sways
