    I'm studying to be an auto service technician, we've got a good spring compressor at the shop - It will give my instructor something to demonstrate as well, which is always a plus


    He told me it would probably be 1 day per side (we are not in shop all day long unfortunately)


    thanks again for the advice. you've been a big help.

    No problem. Make sure to report back once you get the job done!

    I certainly will take lots of pics when I do this. My iPhone takes great pictures, I take tons when I'm working on anything I haven't worked on several times before for reference purposes when re-assembling.


    I think I will do the brakes as well...they're way cheap to service on this car.

    it turns out I didn't take any pictures at all. Finally got around to doing these...got both sides done in a day but I was 1 of 6 guys (3 per side) working on it.


    Did it in school - We needed to remove/service/reinstall front mac struts as part of a project so that's why I had so many helping hands.


    Not nearly as hard as I thought they would be.
