Well that's OK. It's good to know what you shouldn't try. I think 6 hours has some pad in it but he's got to do that unless he's done a few of them already. The alignment is pretty cheap. Are you possibly going to need a camber adjustment beacuse the springs lower the ride? Is this guy a really good suspension mechanic who knows about this sort of stuff?

I did it in 4hrs with my son-in-law assisting. I provided the beer which by the time we were finished so was the beer. We prolly shouldn't have taken it for a test drive after a blunt but we did. The wheels didn't fall off and the coppers were busy eating doughnuts.
Had a alignment done the next day. Put 10k on the car since completed - flawless...

The above advice is worth what you paid for it.

Maybe they've done this and determined that the Camber ends up being just fine with the new springs? It's worth asking them the question.

Yeah that six pack between two of us over 4hrs and my son-in-law sparking up was a "winner" cause I don't have a friggin' brain cell still workin' which brings me to why I got two words "kettle" and "pot" rattling around in my empty head with not the slightest clue how to put 'em together...

it wasn't too hard of an install. As long as the mechanic has a decent air compressor to operate the spring compressors, it's not bad. My little crappy one was cycling on an off like crazy which drastically lengthened the install time.
However, this advice is coming from a guy that must have screwed it up somehow, because my suspension makes more clunking noise now than a tennis match.

The only time I hear clunking noises in a tennis match is the sound the racket makes after I pitch it onto terra firma after losing a bet, a bad serve and/or I miss my opponent. I stopped playing golf after I realized I was ruining an otherwise good walk.
Good luck man...

I've checked the torque specs... I think I need to verify that there's not not any play between the spring and the spring isolator (or whatever that rubber piece between the shock mount and the spring is)... more projects...
