get a spring compressor at Advance/Pep Boys/Autozone for 15 bucks, plus the learning experience man what are you doing?! J/K suspension sucks, if I had the money I'd send mine off to have it done too.

well they got it done, said the bolts on the right one, the broken one, were on so tight that they broke coming off. he had to find other bolts to work in the spot, and ended up with thicker ones or something that he says will be stronger. total with alignment and install of the idler arm is like $178. not too bad.

ill take some pics if you want but its all stock stuff so itll just look stock. the guy that fixed it said it drives really well and is tight but i havent driven it yet. man its nice to have two cars, nice not to have to figure out getting a ride to where i need to go when one is in the shop.
