I have Tein SS Coilovers and need some help....Can anyone direct me to some instructions I can use in the install? Pics would help me out a lot because I'm more of a visual learner.
I looked at the suspension install in FAQ but the pics aren't working anymore.
thanks!

There are instuctions on how to remove the sturt and shock/spring assemblies in the FSM. They are pretty detailed about it so if you follow that, you should be fine. Like I told you before, the hardest part is getting the damn bolts off.
Pay attention to the orientation of the front sway bar endlinks when you remove the front strut assemblies. Not sure on the Tein, but on the KSports, there is an adjustable bracket used for correctly positioning the endlinks. Be sure that you get them to the factory height/position when you install the Tein, or you may get some handling issues. I was off by a half inch on one side which gave me more understeer when turning left.
If you're doing the install by yourself, having two floor jacks will come in handy to help raise/lower suspension parts in order to line up the bolt holes. Good luck, post pics!
sweet..wat'd u pay for them?..wish i could afford coilovers..sorry i cant help

Wow! How did I miss that on AT....Hmm....Thanks! Those should help out quite a bit. Of course I'll post up pics when Spike and I tackle this project.
