Swift Spec-R springs install

mrsmith · 04-03-2015, 04:15 PM

Alight guys Ive searched all through the suspension threads and still cant seem to find an answer. So! Here I am...Im going to but the Swift spec-r springs but im not sure exactly what I need for the install. Do I need to buy a camber kit? Do I need to buy or do anything extra so that my suspension doesnt take a dump on me when Im driving?

Thanks in advance!

Just got mine installed and only ordered the springs. Car drives great and in about a week or so will be getting an alignment.

I don't see how that's possible since I have personally read the answer to your oft-asked question many times in many threads. I actually posted one of these threads myself.

Seek and ye shall find...

Like only just 3 days ago in General Disussions. I had to go look to see if it wasn't simply a repost from the same OP. Link below.

Breaker bar
Socket set with half inch drive and sockets all the way up to 20mm(I believe the bolts on the struts are 17 or 19mm,can't remember)
Impact gun(not necessary but comes in handy for those bolts and the ones on top of the strut)
And also a spring compressor.

Also a camber kit is recommended,but not a deal breaker. I got an alignment after doing my springs 6 months ago and I'm JUST starting to see camber wear now. The camber actually looks pretty good. Toe was able to be adjusted back to spec.
