Sammy Spring Replacement questions
« on: September 05, 2012, 05:34:10 AM »
Been thinking for some time of replacing the sagging springs in my 87 Samurai.  Found a deal on a set of 1.5" lift calmini springs, including 15" braided brake lines, new front shocks, rear shackles and new bump stops for $250.

Having never done any suspension work this dont seem like a job I cant do myself.  My main question is other than the obvious (rear shocks, front shackles and mounting hardware) is there anything else I will need to complete this project?  Any tips that will help make the job easier from those who have done it before?

Lots of PB Blaster to spray on all of the bolts.  If it hasn't been worked on in a while you might want to spray them down the night before as well.
