My KYB's just arrived and I need to get them on. I do not have all the tools I need, but I have a buddy eho said I could borrow what I need. Can anybody tell me what I need as far as socket sizes, wrenchs, etc. Also any pointers on assembly or disassembly would be helpful. Really would like to get them on tonight as my baby has been down for almost 2 weeks now....... Thanx for the help!!!!!

Yes, you will need a strut style spring compressor.......You will need a 24mm socket for the fronts to take off the stock struts. For the rear its smaller but I forget what size, might be 19.....

hey rumpl, as far as sizes I'm not sure but you don't need a compressor becuase you would just take the coil over all the way down and then take the nut off, then get you a pair of jack stands (two pair you could jack the whole car up ) but once you do that just remove the strut and replace the other one and go from there ........
