If you're planning on springs and struts, better plan on sway bar links, too (unless you've already had them off once and anti-seized them).
 
Nope, i'm pretty sure that michigan weather has turned them into one solid piece of rust.

It looks like I can order OEM endlinks for about $100 for all 4, and AWR's for $140. Any reason why I should choose the AWR over OEM?

I like em. It's my first set of lowered springs on a vehicle so I don't really have any comparison to make but, I like em. Ride really isn't harsh or anything.

When you get the springs and struts and are ready to install post up. I'm sure there would be a few guys willing to lend a hand. I know I am going to have a couple business trips coming Mid-April-ish so I might not be available but if I am, I will gladly help out.

Well, I plan on buying new wheels/tires and springs/struts. I should have everything by mid april, but I should be able to get the springs and struts by the end of month.

I like that the eibach's have a softer ride than the Tein's, but I wasn't sure if they would give the visual drop that I was looking for. But after seeing your pic, I'm happy with the way they look. What are your thoughts on them?

I can't think of any good reason.

Gimme a holler when you're ready to put things together. I can install a set of P5 springs in about an hour or two. :)

IT LIVES!!! Michigan is not dead after all!

And I have stuff to install, with more about to be ordered.
 
^^ Sweet, let's do some wrenching. I've been bored all winter and I really don't have anything of my own to install..............
 
I got parts that need to be installed also. If I've got help, I'm buying the Pizza and beer(within reason :D). The rear sway bar will be a b**** but the end links and motor mount should be pretty easy. :D
 
Can we plan an install meet around April 14th? I'm gonna need a few paychecks to cover my parts :)

Oh, and does anyone have a heat gun? I think I might need to roll my fenders.
