i was wondering where did everyone get there springs installed ? or did most of you install them yourself ? most ive done is change my own brake pads and rotors which was easier then changing my oil. i dont wanna get springs and have them end up sitting in my room cause i cant get them installed. anyone wanna help me out ??:biggrin:

its actually pretty simple, and like Tommy said just take your time. Come spring time I would be more than happy to help. I did mine right hear in my driveway. The fronts I did on a sunday evening and rented a compressor for $20. It worked great. The rears I had to wait for the strut mounts and spring seats to come in (as I have a 2002 and I was putting 99-00 Roush springs in). I did those after work in the middle of the night with the little baby compressors, and it went very well too. Like I said though, in the spring I would be more than happy to help, have compressor, work for food lol :biggrin:

BTW, what springs did you pick?

you live in westspringfield ?? i live in springfield

not sure what springs im getting yet. I was gonna get the roush springs but ive heard there sold out or something, i was thinking of getting intrax springs.

Yep, I am right here in west springfield.

Check at Roush Performance (http://www.roushperf.com) I think they would have some left. And there so cheap, and a great mix of performance and comfort. The end up giving you about a 1 1/2" drop. If you wanna check mine out, there's a few of us that stop by Dunkin Donuts around midnight after work. Feel free to stop in. Mines a red XR, but it has regular 99 16" wheels for winter. There may also be an orange del Sol there too. We're all pretty laid back.

Back to the springs, the roush springs were like 120 shipped. For the 2001 you will hafta spend about 70 on the new strut mount and spring seat at Sarat Ford. But that still leaves you good to go for under $200. Like I said though, come spring, I am willing to help. especially if you are up late. lol. We do our best work at night.
