thanks Mugen1 I kind of figured that was why the one set is slightly longer but now its clear! I bet the front was slammed and did look but I would rather not have that suprise after hard work[:@]so thanks again, and ill post up some pics of before and after when its done

 

i had air tools and got like halfway through the install and had to bring it to a shop to half the bolts torched off. Yeah it sucks i had to pay for it and couldnt totally DIY, but it was for real necesarry. I broke a socket wrench during the install from pulling so hard [>:]

 

you can do the whole thing with no sring compressor, I've done them with and without one and it all went perfectly fine...just gotta use damn common sense

 

I just recently did a strut\coil over install and the LCA bolt at the bottom of the strut was seized up in both arms like stated above. One eventually came out and the other was a PITA! I ended up having to go get another LCA off a car from the Junkyard down the road! Good luck cause the heads on the bolts on the LCA's will most likely snap off unless they're fairly new!

 

well, i am an apprentice millwright, so I do know alot a bit about removing siezed bolts and such, I see them everyday at work, and one of the journeymen I work with has alot of the stuff you guys recommend on here, like the cut off torches, impacts(daily part of my job also[8D]with 1 1/2" drives) so I think if he would help it may be easier, then using my tools[:'(]lol. But I have a feeling those bolts are gonna be siezed from what ive read. Also, what do you guys think, should I buy a camber kit? I dont really have enough in the budget right now, as I need to buy a winter beater, my current one a mazda 323 1990 is burning oil[]

 

I just got my shocks in the mail today. Skunk 2 sport shocks:
