Got my rear struts and springs replaced!!!!

[SHO SPD]

Finally, got them finnished today, after a broken bolt, I finally got that tapped, then took that out after A LOT OF WORK AND PAIN! now with good rear struts the saggyness in the back is NO LONGER there! Heres a picture you can compare with my sig pic, not sure how much you can tell that the back is raised, but its a good 2" higher! AAAHHHH the feel of victory!

Yeah great, now how about washing that thing.

What bolt broke, the pincher? Replacing springs and struts on a car that see's salt can be a real pain.

HAHA, I washed it after that picture was taken, I needed to take the picture while there was still light

Yeah it was the bigger bolt the tightened the pinch clamp, it was soooo rusty, and I was trying to rush it with too much force, and it just snapped off. It was a big pain because of all the rust from the salt. I just wished I lived in Florida... hehe
