alright so i am a firm believer in installing stuff yourself. besides you save money its fun and you learn too but im away at school and dont have any tools. i just bought springs but when i was calling around i was gettin prices of anywhere from 160-350 bucks....... WOW! WHAT THE! WOW! I COULD BUY MORE PARTS FOR THAT MUCH! WOW! so how hard is it to install springs myself because im hearing that the rear ones are a b-----. should i just hold onto them until summer and throw them on myself (im in indiana so the snow is also a problem)

:ylsuper just thought i would add a random face.......

they are not hard at all and no actually the rears are slightly easier. The only i guess you could call it heavy duty, is a spring compress. Besides that, well for my s13 all i need is a wrachet, 17mm & deep socket 17mm, 14mm and deep socket 14mm, and pair of plyers for holdind the strut rod still while taking the top nut off. simple to do task w/ medium car skills
