It was suggested to me. I bought'em when I ordered the springs. Only an additional $30. As soon as I can get some peeps together sure, join in too! I'm hoping to hear back from Bacadeisel to see if he is still able to lend out his shop.

Cool. I was talking to an old mustang enthusiast from work and he said without the proper tools, it can be a pretty rough job.

did my coilover install on jackstands, wasn't too bad but it definitely did take a while..

remove the front swaybar endlink off the car before you lift it, will make your life a whole lot easier.

It's very doable on jack stands. I lowered my car by myself in about 4 hrs. Air tools make zipping off the strut bolts a lot easier but still do able with a 90 degree box wrench. I did the panhard install at the same time. I can get that fascia on the car in less than an hr. I've taken the front bumper off so many times I've got it down to an art! I can help out when you want to do it I'm just in Roanoke if we still have the shop to do it.
