Yeah.... Ball joint separator is a great tool to have. I completely destroyed my ball joints and tie rod ends trying to get them off. They were super tight and I use the fork type separator.
Here is mine (vert kit): Back has no adjusters and no pads (not low enough). I didnt cut out my stock spring perch in the front... that being said my adjusters are spun all the way down and I want more low... I am hoping for a big settle. But overall I am happy with the set. The hardest part was to remove the stock shock from the strut housing. I had to take it to a shop that used an air hammer to get the stock shock out.
Installing the JOM components went smooth but removing the stocks components was a bitch. I could have used a spring compressor for the rears because the trailing arm couldn't drop low enough and I kind of had to pry the rear springs out.

Mine came out with a little man power and everything disconnected. The fronts are easy I just spun the collar all the way down and it bolted up perfect. However ill get pictures of my rear shocks and want to see if any other car has had this problem... On the rear shock the part that covers the piston on top broke. Thus causing it to slide down and rattle. Any fix or should i just weld it?
