Default Gov springs

Not a bad job did my own for the first time.Took about an hour. Get a oil pan for the mess when you remove Access plug. Have a friend handy to get the springs lined up in the hole. Def easier. LOL Search our site I'm sure there is directions on here.

Its easy to do, just take your time. Make sure you get all the shims out and remember that the old sping seats are two pieces. I forgot about that part and left half of the old ones in. Talk about a bitch to drive.
