Tips for Springs/Shocks
Fronts
Things i ran into were the poeple who mounted the front spring just tightened the nut, they didnt actually tighten it to the washer.
The ball joint thingy that you have to pop off --jack the arm up and down a few time as you hit it and it will pop right off.
Switch the torx nut that is under the brake booster to the passanger side and put a hex in its spot.
To take off that torx i had to loosen the brake booster (where is mounted to the firewall) and slip a T50. To turn it, I used an 8mm box wrench to twist the torx bit. (BlueStrat's Idea)
Make sure you clean the rust and shittyness in the A-arm out.
Rears
Make sure the springs are facing the right way, just as they were in stock form
