Guess it might not seem like alot to some,but got my new springs and struts on today......

Got a very nice drop on the car...Before I had a fist and some from tire to fender,now it is about 3 fingers and I am quite pleased.......Got the struts Tacbear gave me installed finally and the handling is improved as well.....

SPECIAL thanks to Michael (rtusnake) for his hard work......I wrenched as well,but he knew what had to be done and I became a hands on student.....


2 more down.............quite a few more to go.........
