make sure you mark your camber (i think that's it) bolt before you remove it... unless you want to have an alignment done. it's the one with the tic marks on it.

and unless you've got the springs already installed, you're gonna need a spring compressor tool. get it from one of those places that lends a tool. it's easy as pie. ... and i like pie

The only company that I know that manufacturers something like that is Monroe.

Also, if you lower a 2G eclipse, prepare for it to handle weird if you don't get adjustable front upper control arms. There is no real camber adjustment on those cars due to the double wishbone suspension setup.

How hard is it to put springs on shocks? If its hard how much would a place charge to do it?
