spring install

can't really help much as a spring install would be a fairly lengthy writeup. Only advice I can give you is you might want to look into renting some spring compressors from autozone or something. Make sure you don't tighten everything down until you get the car lowered back down and the weight loads the springs, and you probabley should look into a suspension alignment afterwards as alot of times when you mess with suspension things will be a little out of wack once its all together and your tires will suffer horribly for it. Other than that I wish you luck and you should snap some pictures if you do it, this section can always use some good DIY articles.
