lol.. I'm assuming you guys got stuck on the part where you have to take the spring off the oem strut.. and you need a angled box wrench with a regular wrench to get it off? just taking a stab since I think Wil is re-using the stock struts?
If that's the case.. go to home depot and pick up a open box wrench

If you guys can't get the spring compressor.. then just loose it and aim it at a wall or across the street.. luckily the Htechs will be shorter so you don't need to compress them lol..
Make sure you take some Vids

^I'm free tomorrow until about 2pm and then from 4 pm after.
Check the rear too. it could be the springs trying to settle themselves in. If your not busy today bring the impact wrench and I'll quad check everything again. I'm gonna yank out my interior today and give the G a full cleaning inside . This time I'll be able to get all those hard to reach places and I want to shampoo my carpet.
