i did it all by myself in the driveway. when getting the struts back in you have to put the jack under the controll arm and raise up on the jack. while there is pressure on it tap the sides on the spindle and the spindle will slowly rise upward on the strut. once the strut tab reaces the spindle you have to line up the tab with the slot on the spindle. the spindles are real strong so dont be scared to put the hammer to it. best thing to do before putting the struts back in is to clean the strut bore on the spindle with sandpaper than put a bit of oil. withthe stock se 15 i dont have any kind of rubbing even when going over large bumps. im sure 17's or 18's would fit. im just gong to stick with the stock wheels for the sleeper look but i am considering a set of fsvt 17's .
