    ok guys i have eibachs coming in the next week or so and i have a few questions....when we did my friends ion redline springs we had trouble getting the top nut on the strut loose without a impact to spin it super fast because the nut would spin the whole struts assembly inside the spring....so should i loosen the top nuts with the struts on the car a small amount before removal? give me a lil help on the spring swap part and also how much (inches) should i cut my bumpstops?

    i dont know. never did anything with mine since the car was lowered when i bought it already. its possible they were never cut since the car seemed to "bottom out" over large bumps a lot.
