Managed to get my suspension installed this weekend. My buddy's boss let me use the shop which made it so much easier to work on my car.
Passenger side strut assembly removed
Found a surprise on the passenger side (sorry for the blurry pic)
Had to spray some PB Blaster and use a torch in order to get the stock gland nuts loose
Drivers side buttoned up
Rear installed
E46 RSM's with Garagistic reinforcement
Getting aligned (the car barely fit on the alignment rack)
A couple nice cars in the shop
Before:
After:
I need to get rid of some of the rake. I installed some 7.5mm rear spring pads expecting it to look like Lowtecs 60/50 kit but its more rake than I want. I'll wait a little to see if it settles any then adjust accordingly.
