I live in tujunga and i can do the rears, but the front you need a special tool and it is easier to just have a shop do it, i know a good place near me that did my front springs for 80 bucks.

wish you would have posted this yesterday or earlier today.. we just had a small mod day at RMS and finished lowering a buddies WS6 a couple of hours ago

the rears takes 20 minutes tops

the fronts well. all you need to do is rent a spring compressor and read THIS, it will explain RMS and PHK and we can def help you out. pitch in for a couple pizzas and sodas/raspberry iced teas. show up to Bobs Big Boys in Burbank this friday and come and chill


i only invite people to RMS that i know, since it is my house, so hit up Bobs and meet the crew

Many places can do it you just have to call and find the right price, but I say go for it yourself like I did not difficult just takes time, patience, and spring compressors plus you learn that much more about your car...

I just rented the spring compressor about 2 months ago. You rent it for $50, and you get the $$ back when you return it. It's that easy.

Until you figure out that the stock springs are a bitch and a half and you need better spring compressors than what Autozone has... That or it's just the V6 f-body effect.

The $50 autozone tool is really decent. Thats why you have to leave a hefty deposit on it. We put my Stranos on with it, and took the stockers off just fine....just FYI.
