think this is in the right place sorry if it aint

was just wondering how difficult and things they were to fit or if anyone had any tips for installing them really

considering them as i have through out the built:P but think it would finish the car of nicley with the front end sitting up

	If at first you don't succeed, cut some more metal out.

Back is really easy but the front is harder and requires a cone compressor , a quick search on Google will show you loads of pictured guides of the job. I have just done the rear if my car as it was sitting high and took me half the day , the fronts tho I would say a bit longer would be needed , but I'm just a newbie so maybe I'm slow

	Any one can restore a classic but it takes a real man to cut one up
