if i put these on stock struts, from my understanding i will likely blow
them in no time. but i think ill risk it lol

What about the front swaybar links?? Do they just hang there???

Johnnysshop says:

Thanks for watching! I would probably go with Craftsman or similar for my
next floor jack. I’ve had the MVP since I was about 16 years old and it’s
been great but the blue one is a Harbor Freight and I’ve had some issues
with it in a few short years so I wouldn’t get that one. The stands are
actually the Harbor Freight Heavy Duty models and I love those.

Yellow pages jack ftw!!! ;P

spelunkerd says:

It must have been a surprise to see badly fitting springs on the car
already. Presumably the previous owner replaced them without you knowing.
What was the performance issue you were trying to solve?

Jose Gonzalez says:

Great video. Very good reference for when I do my coilover install in a
couple of months.

Johnnysshop says:

It connects to the front A-arms

Jon Zelnick says:

Johnny youre the man.,.definitely gave me the confidence to DIY

Johnnysshop says:

LOL.. I have to drive it up on phone books first in order to get the jack
under her!

Johnnysshop says:

If I remember correctly I’m using 525F / 550R

addnon says:

Was your ebrake down when you did the rears? That might have been the issue

anish4 says:

Cheesemonger69 says:

Rozay991 says:

suspension is missing

Joey Muzzio says:

how do you like those rates? the fronts seem a bit high

Joey Muzzio says:

What are your rates?

Johnnysshop says:

Pushed in the corners a lot, had a lot of rake and it’s pretty much a
dedicated autox/track car so I wanted some good stuff on her.

Johnnysshop says:

Thanks, wish I could have filmed more.

Johnnysshop says:

Thanks for watching! It’s pretty easy, just get it aligned afterwards.
