Hey guys. im looking at some lowering springs for my car. you guys have any idea how long it will take to install?

 

like an hour if you know what your doing and have all the right tools

 

just removed mine a week ago, took 2-3hours with just myself and 102 heat index ahaha

 

Like 4 if you dont

 

An hour if you have a pit crew

remove wheels

remove lower strut bolts

remove upper strut bolts

stabilizer bar bolt.

Compress spring


remove top bolt

then reinstall new springs and put back together,torque to spec x4 ....an hour by yourself no way.

took me 2hours by myself, thats with all the right tools and an compressor

 

took me 5 hours. but I took breaks

 

there was a minor beer break within my install time aswell haha

 

i had two others helping me that would be why. you all must be some slow ass' haha

 

The rears are a snap.. I did mine in 30 minutes using no pneumatic tools the first time.

The fronts are a bit of a pain. They took me 3 hours just because I didn't have the right tools and needed to drive around to my friends places borrowing things. You're going to need spring compressors and a nice impact wrench unless you have a MacPhereson strut nut removal tool.. I'd definitely recommend the impact wrench though.

 

took me three hours with a 2nd person who owns a srt4. he slowed it down a lot lol

 

well thats why, 3 people definitely shorten the time

 

I am doing mine soon (if they ever come) I'm thinking it will be a snap, my camaro was probably harder than a cobalt

 

average around 2 hours id say

 

have your friend with a car lift do it for you for $20 bucks. thats what i did.

 

took about an hour and a half with a buddy. Shootin the **** while doing it.

 

did anybody preload there bushings?
