you dont need to i changed all 4 spring son my car by myself... most recommend a spring compressor to compress the spring... but as long as u have someone else helping you, you should be alrite, just be careful the bolt ontop of the strut shoots out when u undo it so be careful... its a pretty basic procedur eif u need any help on it let me kno... u can aim me at jmoney3318 im always on or just ask in the thread whatever you want =)

i ordered a new strut tower thats already got the spring on it so no big deal for me to worry about now...ordered from where my friend works and got his employ discount:iceslolan so didnt cost much out of pocket.. thanks for all the help though gonna have to lower it pretty soon tired of the factory look.:banghead:

yea i think lowering it was def. one of the best mods ive done, i love the way it drives. oh and when your removing the strut assembly from the chassis or watever its called... if you can get your hands on an air gun it would be great cuz thos bolts ill tell you are a paini n the ass to get off i didnt have an air gun so i just used a long socket with a piece of PVC piping or watever its called for an extender to push on and it worked like a charm.
