                • Did you really take your struts to a place to be assembled? Or did you assemble them yourself I hope.

                    $30 wasnt worth the risk of injury playing with a spring compressor.

                          I'm thinking of it more as an excuse to upgrade to tubular control arms within a couple seasons

                          • I haven't talked to the guy in a while but I was talking to a guy from BMR and he told me he can get me slightly cheaper than their website offers. We had a couple emails back and forth.
