is there any way I can put my intrax springs on myself?? I wanted to use big C clamps to compress them down but does anyone know step by step how to do it ?? and if not, how much u guys think it'd cost me to get them put on by someone?? all my friends here say $200...thats more than I payed for the springs themselves...

thanx everyone:)

Doubt you'll have much luck with the clamps. The clearance is really tight, so I'd imagine you'd have to use proper spring compressors. You can pick them up cheaply enough, however.

I can't say for intrax springs, but changing stock springs is dead easy - just a little time consuming. I can give you the details of changing P11 springs if you want. Let me know..

well im changing mine on a P10, plus I just got some random $200 bonus check at work so odd's are I'll be getting them put on by someone else, thanx !

Don't forget when you change the springs on a P10 you need to have a 4-wheel alignment done ASAP. If that $200 includes the alignment then it's an OK deal.

Hey DJ really its not too hard at all....I changed the springs on my friends.he bought some intrax springs...the hardest part is unbolting everything! YOu should do it your self.....it will also help you "know" your car better for future mods!!! And do you know where I can get some intrax springs!>?! I really need some! :alien: :bloated: :licker: :smoka: :flash:

All I've heard is that intrax springs suck.

I was going to do mine myself....autozone will rent you the spring compressor for free. But you gotta put a 50 dollar deposit.

Mine was 175 to install....so I guess with alignment that is good.

Damn $200 to install springs, no way. I got my springs/shocks put on for $100. The guy told me that an alignment is not necessary if you get the shocks/springs made for you car. Maybe I should get one, I wonder if it will make my ride less bumpy?

Your supposed to get an alignment after you get your car lowered. I didn't get mine aligned after I got my Tein's on b/c it went straight. Getting new shocks really has nothing to do with your alignment but you need to get performance shocks with performance springs. When you get the new shocks...your ride will be less bouncy.
