I printed out the whole link with all the pics, VERY helpful. You'll have to get a compressor from somewhere I think like Pepboys or Advance might rent them to you.

really helps if you have air tools... plus closed ended wrenchs, a set of deep sockets at least for the rears. Also you may need a large wrench for the one side of the strut bolts as you zip them off with an airgun on the otherside.

it also helps to have someone else there to lend a hand or hold your beer!

Air tool's a must, nut's & bolt's are little tight and make thing happen alot easy and fast. Just did mine over the week end... nuvibe
