i have a set of tanabe NF210 springs. does anybody have any experience on installing them yourself? the shops locally are charging some outrageous prices to install and i wanted to know if somebody could but together a guide or just some general tips on making it DIY.
definitely regional, but yeah, how much are they charging? i think a lot of labor goes into taking off all the trunk lining in teh back of teh car, that takes time
The same shop actually charged me more for Tein-H springs install than Tein CST coilovers install becase they needed extra labor for spring compressor.
it's actually a lot more involved, but in a sense to take apart the trunk. basically you have to take apart ALL lining and stuff inside the trunk in order to reach the strut towers
If you have a Kragens or pepboys, the spring clamp compressor is Free of Charge to rent.
Installation is easy, you just need air tools. Look around the strut to see what to disconnect, try to unscrew everything u see holding the strut assembly.
