Re: coil spring install....
Hi all,
Just got my eibach springs this week and a friend is going to help me install them. I was just wondering if there is a step by step anywhere, or if there was anything I had to look out for when I do this.
Thanks
Kris
Re: coil spring install....
I couln't find one, but I thought there was...seriously, I know I saw one. I did one for the rear shocks, but as far as the front, I used this as a guide...
FIRST OPEN THE SITE http://chevy.mrmax.dp.ua/EN/documents/K ... kalos.html
then click in this order...service manual, suspension, maintenance and repair, on-vehicle repair, strut assembly (then scroll through and you can see what you need to remove and what you don't.
Make sure you have a spring compressor, either the bench stand type or borrow the clamp style from the auto parts store.
Good luck. Where do you live? If you are close enough, I'll help you.

Re: coil spring install....
thanks for the link, it worked great. I got them installed, the car looks awesome, but more importantly The corners feel great. I just installed an air intake recently and now this, I guess i got to figure out what next.
thanks for the advise,
Kris
