I'm getting the Crane one and it should be in on Monday... I have to change mine out but I should be done by next weekend... Are you doing a cam install too at the same time?? If you want to just do your springs we could do them at my place cuz it does them two at a time... it's something like $130 but I had to get one that actually works... I live in Vista...
