This is what I was remembering. I don't know if it will help. http://forums.vwvortex.com/zerothread?id=2213232
I don't know much about suspension.

Just found this thread while doing a search. Still haven't found a good DIY for installing your own springs. Anybody? I don't want to have to take it somewhere if I can do it myself. Or perhaps someone knows if Eibach sends you instructions or not with the springs? TIA

I just got my H&R sports and will probably install it this weekend. Will I need the strut spreader tool or can I use something more common to replace it? Also, is there anything in the swankmonkey.com DIY that's different from actual install experience? Thanks.
