22527, ?'s on lowering. Posted by TKI, Feb-19-04 02:53 AM
Can someone give me detailed instructions on lowering my eclipse? I have done it several times on my old '95, but it always took 4 or 5 hours. I have seen that people on here say that you can do it in 2 hours, and one of my other friends says that he can do his in 2 hours. I thought that I might be taking more parts off than necessary b/c I always had a time trying to get the strut out once I got it loose from the wishbone bracket on the bottom of the strut.
I know that I didn't search, but don't flame b/c I am at work, and I really don't have a lot of time to spend on here.

if u can get ahold of some power tools it would be nice. thats where u can save some time..i just took off the nuts on the top of the strut under the hood and in the hatch area...then undid the bolt that holds the shock to the car..kicked it out and there u have it....u might have some probs with the front ones though..there is a sway bar thing u have to undo from the shock on the front ones....thats where it sucked for me....
