Don't forget to tighten your lower jam nuts.

if you change your own oil its a dream. oil change in less than 10 minutes, and most of the time is spent jacking the car up and waiting for the oil to drain. no mess, no drama. I love it.

Give me some credit, all I managed to break doing this was my garage epoxy.

I did roll down the street and back without tightening the camber lock nuts in the back. Not like they can spin with the LCA in place though.

Yeah, I'm looking forward to installing these sometime in the next week or two, if it doesn't get too cold.

Do it! Installed mine last January. In the garage with 2 Kerosene heaters. First time I had ever done any suspension work or a job this involved. Took me just about 5 hours, but such a feeling of accomplishment and satisfaction.

Drove ~600 miles in the past few days. Not a huge deal, but it's the first time I've driven long enough one tank to get highway mileage. ~34mpg on snow tires in typical crap I-95 traffic. Not too bad.

Pretty decent highway car, besides my exhaust making it a touch hard to hear my music sometimes, it was great. I never felt the need to get out and stretch even on a 5 hour drive, good stuff.
