| IT'S HERE!!!!! The UPS guy just dropped off my spring and shocks. The shocks are a little dirty but feel good and arent easy to push in. The springs look brand new. I can't wait to put these on. | |

| I got another question. How do I know which springs go on the front and which go on the back? There is a set of wider springs and a set of narrower springs. | |

| It's easy to tell man, once one of the fronts or rears are ripped out, can do a side-byside to determine | |

Yeah it was. I tried doing the install today but I couldnt get the fucking stabilizer end link nut off. The whole thing just kept spinning and there is nowhere to grab the other end because of the little ball joint boot that is on the other side of it. Does anybody know of a trick to get that nut off? It shouldnt be that hard, I think my end links might be going bad. | |

| Try with the car on the ground. The weight of the car will put stresss/pressure on it so hopefully you could remove it. | |

| Yeah, on the opposite side of the nut you're taking off, take some vise grips, and clamp em down to the end link, then the nut will come off | |

It was either pay off a credit card or order the sways.....the sways won. I ordered them last night so they should be here sometime next week. Just for the info, how much bigger are the SRT sways over the R&T sways? I appreciate the offer though. | |

| I think SRT sways are like 30-32 mm. I don't know what R/T or R&T size the sways are. | |
