Dfw people come in Just ordered sportlines and would like some help from my fellow members to put them on. I will supply beer and some food for the help. I figure it's a good excuse to meet some of you guys and shoot the ****. Let me know if you guys are interested.

So are any of you guys in to help or come watch or atleast drink free beer? I would like some company while i'm attempting something I have never done.

I will warn you that if your car has seen any kind of inclement weather, the nuts on the front struts may need to be cut off. Its really a crap shoot but ive had about a 50/50 chance of getting them off succesfully with my wall mounted strut compressor. Even if I spray them with PB nut blaster and hit it with a wire brush.

Well the problem is I can't afford to pay someone to do it right now. I just ordered duals and the springs I ordered on my discount card so I really have to do them myself.
