I'm up to almost going anywhere, in the state of florida, if the price is right. Or should I do it myself, I'm starting to get the hang of all these do-it-yourself'ers. Thanks.

Hey PanamaSE, just so you know, installing springs on our cars is a pain, but I'll recommend you to the shop that did a great job on mine. Preston's sport truck's and imports in Pompano off of Copans and Powerline. Call and speak to Jeremy(pres.) (954)984-8040 and just tell him that Alan referred you. I really can't say how much it will run, but I would suspect a couple hundred for install(it's a pain in the arse).

Alan, it ain't really that bad. Air tools will cut your time in half. Tons of people have done it themselves. As a matter of fact, me, jim and shaun are doing mine again soon.

Its easy if you look at the cars set up. I did the fronts by my self about 3 weeks ago. Took 3 hours for both sides. The hard part is getting the strut out of the socket, and back in the socket. I used all hand tools also, air tools would make it a snap!

Not a hard job at all...6 hours without air tools.

I took part in doing springs, shocks, control arms, bushings, and a bunch of other stuff on a 95 Cobra. Defenitely can be done at home, but with air tools.
