Awesome stuff! Nciely packaged and wonderful color instruction manual that is vehicle specific (featuring..MY Car!!!11! ).

If you have any questions Mike, give me a shout!

I definatly need to get my hands on this kit, such a help that it shouldnt be passed up. Really makes me angry that GM wouldnt put this on the car stock!!

[GTPGuy82]

I should be good. I put these on my Cougar, it was my first time ever using a rivet gun. I have the same one they show in the picture! Only because I didn't have one at the time and I thought hell, I'll buy that one! haha

[CoupeOfG6]

Yeha, I have the same too, lol. Craftsman RAWKS!

I've installed 3 sets on my own..it was a treat to see the pros at work doing it, though!

[simplyred]

Any work done is nice when you're not the one who's doing it!

[CoupeOfG6]

..Yeah, that's nice too, lol.

Haha I couldn't resist it. I was so bored and had time to kill so I installed them. It took me about an hour and 20 minutes. I would have been done sooner, but I came across two issues:

1. On one of the struts, the locking clip for the ball joint near the hood was on the wrong side. It was on the inside, in between the bracket and hood. Could NOT fit a finger in there. So I had to figure out how to get it on there. Finally I just decided to take the ball joint off, slip the clip in partially, then try to get the ball joint on while holding the clip there. Then once it was on I put the clip all the way through and locked it on.

2. Not really an issue, but I couldn't figure out why the redline tuning logo is facing upward on one strut, and downward on the other one. No big deal though.

Here's some pics:







Overall excellent quality workmanship!!

I just gon mine, looks great! How did you cycle the struts in advance? I was trying but I cannot get them to compress.

Yea they're pretty strong. I put a rag up against my garage wall, held the cylinder end of the strut, and pressed them into wall. It took some muscle, but eventually they compressed.

mmm looks pretty damn good. i wasnt so sure about it but im liking it now

[CoupeOfG6]

You can still get in on it guys! Great work Mike, looks just like mine!
