i'm in the town area. i'd like to lend a hand if work permits

if you got a wagon...makes it easier! you don't have to take out the back seat like the sedans...

i have a sedan, it took me about 2-3 hours to install my tein coilovers w/o air tools.
it pretty straight foward...

well here's the torque spec's (if you need it)

front torque spec's
3x nuts- top strut mount (14.5 ft-lb)
2x nuts- bottom strut (129 ft-lb)

rear torque spec's
3x nuts- top strut mount (14.5 ft-lb)
2x nuts- bottom strut (162 ft-lb)

hellz yeah. took us about 2 1/2 hrs, and that was with all my diet coke and smoke breaks. had to adjust them all once but i made sure i counted the threads twice so it worked out nicely. also did Hoppie's rear sway bar. All in all a pretty fun time. surprisingly everything went pretty smootly. now to take a nap.

it shouldn't be rubbing at all but if it does raise it up another 1/4 - 1/2 inch. if you need help let me know. isn't that hard just make sure you get em both the same. have fun, L8R

really? are you sure that it's rubbing? where on the front or the back? if it's the back look at the sidewalls to make sure that it's not ****ed up...

if it's the fronts... it might be rubbing against your inner liner due to the aggressive tread pattern.

i think its the rear and it doesnt happen often. luckily its on the side where i still have the rubber protector so its not ****ed up.

you'll need the REAR BRAKE HUBS. it doesn't look like you get those in this one...

Jon

If it is rubbing in the rear enough that rubber piece will bunch up...
