Any one got the part #'s or links to these coilovers? You made it look so easy, I kind of want to give it a go, when I tackle my LBAS

Installing was easy. Adjusting the dam ride height was a monumental pita. I gave up after 3 iterations of putting it on stands, adjustingn, and setting it down.

Best left to someone who has a fancy alignment rack and lift that let's them adjust the height without jacking up the car every time.

Just devote a full weekend from 8 am to 8pm both days (just in case), have a nice long breaker bar, 6 point sockets, replacement bolts, and a 150ftlb torque wrench. Be slow and careful about your reinstall to get every torque just right.

My front passenger side LCA bolt took penetrant and a huge air impact wrench to move it, so be ready. Definitely a good time to hand off your knuckles for new bearings, upgrading your sway bars, doing the Cusco underbody brace, and getting some daizen bushings pressed in.

Overall, suspension is pretty easy remove and replace.
