Spring swap instructions

I know I saw it on here somewhere and I tried searching for it. I am going to be swapping my eibach sportlines for my stock springs and I want to find the post on doing the spring swap so I have all my ducks in a row before I do it. If anyone can point me in the right direction. It was a great post with pictures and everything. Thanks

haha thats funny i just did this last weekend. make sure you go to autozone and by a spring compressor. it should be a long rod with two "clamps" on them. looks almost like a big c-clamp. if you need to know anything lmk.

How long did it take? I'll be doing this, this weekend if I can get Saturday off and also be using a shop with lift, spring compressor and air tools. So I hope that helps out.

backs 10 minutes? just unbolt the shocks and the rear will drop down. the front will take a little longer since there is more work involved. but im sure you'll be fine. just make sure you have that spring compressor!! good luck also.
