Too much of a hassle. How hard is it? I remember you saying you did it for your coils.
How long should it take?

Koni SP3 with Eibach Springs.

Maximum amount I wanted to drop is 1.5" so it's the perfect setup for me.

You guys are funny.

Anyways thanks but I'm going to try it this Saturday with a friend and see how it goes. I got a spring compressor and air tools if needed. If I run into any problems I'll let you guys know.

It kinda helps to remove the rear seats the day before, to get it out of the way early on. As long as you have air tools for the spring compressor its not that bad, just takes time.

Been hiding out at ImpalaZine.com

They give away free huge Impala stickers in Old English to put on your ride. Its pretty bad ass...

I see you've got a new black car, good get man. The engineering manager at work has a C06 with a centrifugal supercharger with meth kit, and the outside is 100% stock, even exhaust tips.
