[QUOTE="srl135, post: 6350129, member: 34160"] it is simple but does take longer if you only have one small jack that damn near maxes out high enough for some low jackstands, as well as if you have not done it before and are being careful to make sure you pay attention to everything and watch for the things you might not think about. Just my humble opinion. But from my personal experience, the rears are soooooo much easier than the fronts and dropping the IRS is the way to go. take off the catback, unbolt the rear IRS cradle bolts, unbolt the lower shock mounts, while the IRS cradle is all supported and then lower it down. You can literally, pull the spring out without any effort, in fact one of mine fell out when i dropped the IRS. If you are planning on going with wide wheels this may be a good time to get the MM buttonhead bolt for the IRS since you have to remove it anyway for this job. And the H&R sports dropped my front way too low for me to enjoy driving since it scraped everywhere, so I found a happy level with Eibach Prokits, but each person and each car are different. You most likely will need CC plates too and DEFINATELY a full 4 wheel alignment afterwards and make sure you have the buddy around. This job can go very smooth, but can also get hella frustrating so the company and the must-have beer can do wonders. [/QUOTE]
