FYI- It's going to take you more than two hours. The fronts are kind of a pain in the ass. The rear is total cake, should be able to do it in 30min.

we actually going to swap the coilovers in the front, therefore we dont need to use any spring compressors. Yes, the rust might be the problem for us but I've thought about using coke to kill the rust as i did before when installing mine. Thanks for the info. we are still looking for the right time. :)

Btw, anybody know how much force needed to tighten the 3 bolts on the top of the coilovers?

So, you're just going to drop the entire strut assembly from both cars and swapsie it w/o taking the springs off? That will make it a lot easier.

Well, we're doing some fender rolling at Jon's after detail day. Depending on how much of his garage/driveway he wants to offer up, that might work. I'm not going to speak for Jon though... haha

Yeah, my priorities are with detail day, and then fender rolling....

Was wondering if you guys do not get the fender rolling fully done for everyone tonight if we can do it on tint day.
I am sure there is going to be alot of hang time that night. And it might keep us occupied and entertained while
waiting for our cars to get done.

It's possible that could work. IIRC TintPros was working on 2 cars at a time last year, and obviously that would be the priority. But if there's room and resources, it may work.

Yeah i mean it sounds like there is going to be a good show up for tint day and i have afew buddies showing up for it as well so I am sure there will be plenty of lag time that we can use. Hell it will keep us entertained. Even the ppl that dont want ther fenders rolled will most likely not mind watching. Did you guys get all of your fenders rolled today?
