I put the coilovers on RD's car last night.
Didn't know if he would be pissed or not after he said he was just going to have it done at a shop.
So now the shocks are on all 4 corners. Just waiting on the new end links to put on the front, recut the threads on the left front ball joint and adjut the height on the corners and he will have his car back. A grand total of about an hour or 2s worth of work.

and drive red devil's car I cant drive red devils car. the front suspension might just fall off.
thats kinda my fault though.
my car is pimpin under all the dirt, vacuum leak, new CEL i got today, fender liner that is dragging the ground, bubbling window tint, etc. Its only saving grace is there are no more flying H's on it anywhere.

Anyone who thinks the Rear shocks are harder to replace than the front shocks are absolutely out of their ******* minds.
