EIBACH SPORTLINE SPRINGS

Doing the suspension work was much easier than I thought it would be. Not ever having driven it in the snow has left all the bolts looking brand new. In fact, I didn't even need to use air tools. It took about 5 hours to do with a tool and lunch break. I have done spring wortk on 2 other vehicles so I had some experience going in. For those that plan on doing the install down the road, here's the tools I needed:

17mm deep socket
17mm open end wrench
14mm deep socket
14mm open end wrench
Metric alan wrenches
10mm socket
12mm socket
Hammer
Floor jack
Jack stands
