Default Need shocks and struts put in...
Most shops are not open on the weekends an that is my only free day. Can anyone do this for me? They don't allow big maintenance in my apt complex.

I am doing my wifes 98 Z and my 94 Firebird this weekend. The rear shocks are about 20 minutes, fixing to learn on the front. I know a spring compressor is necessary.

If at all possible, take the front assemblies off and take them to a shop with a good spring compressor. It will be worth whatever you spend on labor.

Dopefedz knows all about the mighty spring compressor at the 11200 palace.
