yes, however, if you're still on stock springs, you WILL need a spring compressor, and they aren't very fun at all.


yeah, they can be a little tricky. The tool is rentable at most parts outlets, or they can be bought cheap at places like Princess Auto/Harbour Freight. Before I bought a set, when I changed mine I took them down to a friends shop who has a strut tamer. (larger machine for changing springs) which will compress the spring/strut assembly all at once.

If you go with the spring compressor, make sure its attached right, nothing worse then it coming off or swinging around and taking out appendages.
