There are some other options for installs at the bottom.

 

I installed my JIC coilovers with ease. Took my time (had my girlfriend help as a second hand which came in handy) Took a break midway also. took me most of the day but was worth it.

 

WHOOO!!! they're done and look amazing but like a lot of people i've read about im getting this bad knocking sound when i hit small bumps...passenger side from wheel sounds like where its at...will an alignment fix it or did i *** it up?

 

Knocking sound is either loose nuts on the top of the strut or sway bar connections. Most common anyway.

 

Yes, make sure your nuts are tightened to spec on the strut tower.

 

ya i read about that and went out to try and tighten them and i don't have a wrench big enough if i take it to get an alignment and what not you think the people will tighten that for me? might get a kind mechanic for once hahahha

i just took pice so ill try and post em if i figure out how
