Do you have any tools? Air tools are your friends for spring installs (compressor, strut nut, etc....)

Where in PHilly are you?

Don't use the impact gun, just hand tools. Here is a great how-to with pics. Dont forget your Tq. wrench!

I know i read that over a dozen times.
no impact on the tops of the struts but the places where it mounts to the lower arms are fine.
