I don't know why you couldn't do suspension yourself. Strut type suspension is really easy. I've done it like 2 or 3 times before and never really had a problem. All you have to disconnect is the sway bar link and two strut bolts on the steering knuckle and the 2 bolts on the strut tower. The strut on your civic is a little different, there are two bolts that hook up to the steering knuckle instead of one that hooks up to the control arm. But i've done this type of suspension before and as i said, i didn't have a problem. I've even taken the springs off and reinstalled them (for practice) and even this wasn't that big of a problem. The hardest part would prolly be aligning the spring up to the old strut. You could always take the strut to a shop to have the spring installed, since you prolly don't have a spring compressor anyway. But taking the old strut out and installing it again shouldn't be a problem, air tools help.

 

I know i Work on car 52 hours a week! But if you lower some it fuc&s up the camber and you also have to remove the upper ball joints and replace with and ajustable ones to reset the camber and there the cheapest things in the world. If you Half asz it, or the shop you take to it will eat the insides of your tires. P.S. I set up Two front ends at work Today! Thank and never cut or heat spring in fuc& dumb St!t!
