Looks great man, I just finished lowering mine on Ground Controls tonight. It is a great feeling to DIY right?
For the rear shocks, I had the same problem. I just unbolted my swayar from the endlink on whatever side I was working on and then I had plenty of room to get the shock out with a little wiggling. No need to undo the UCA or LCA. At least in my case. Once I unbolted the rear sway, it gave me those extra inches I needed to get the assembly out of there.
Good luck with the rest of the project! Are you installing a camber kit at all? I am skipping that for now. Maybe one day.

cool. Naw no camber kit yet. It doesn't even look like I'll need one. We'll see.
yeah, that description was really confusing..
Naw, they are RacingHart Type-C's. They are pretty nice looking, especially now that the car is lower

yeah, just unbolt the control arm (either at the hub, or at the sub frame) it is really easy, and as long as you don't break the bolt (speaking from experience) it pops right back in with no problems. it would also be a good time to check out the control arm bushings/shock mount bushings to see if they need to be replaced. they are cheap and easy to replace as well.

yeah, i just HAD to get a lip becasue the Mugen (style) front lip has never came in the mail..... I ordered it like 4 months ago.
spring compressors are nice... The first shock/spring combo I thought I wouldn't need it, so I was taking the top bolt off and BOOOOOOOOMM. The strut went flying down the driveway :rolf: For the second one, I learned my lesson and compressed it lol........ Thankfully nothing was damaged. :roll:
i can't wait for it to stop raining, so I can do the back... Looks funky all raked forward crazy, but the front looks awesome now....
i'll update soon with the pics for whoever that was about the front offset plate
