It is a bunch of work!!!!!!! I just installed new poly bushings in the
front and DID NOT remove the spring( didn't have to),but i would
have to had the car at least another 10 inches higher. I was about
a foot and a half on jackstands. Check the tech tips for front spring
removal. If you take out the spring,you might upgrade your susp.

How high should the car be before I attempt this project? You can only get jack stands so high before it gets down right scarey. :eek:
