 guess what my girlfriend got me!  I'm leaving tomorrow for a couple days vacation, I'll post pics of the install when I get back. I still need to get the spring insulators and the bump rubbers. also considering buying a spring compressor if they're not too expensive.

i actually used a plumbers clamp and tightened the f**k out of it then whacked it with a hammer a few times... flew right off.... the pain in the but is just figuring out how to do the first one... and you cant really check if sealed or not without taking it all apart...
