i have installed the springs and shocks many times on the e36. it is very straight forward and can be done yourself. on the front shocks, you will need a deep offset box wrench to allow you to remove the upper strut bearing while preventing the shaft from turning. but that is the only tool which you'll need that not everyone has in their garage. oh yeah, a spring compressor too.

it takes about 4 hours to do the whole thing. an air tank would cut that time down considerably.


: I need an advice about lowering springs on 325i '95
: is it difficult?
: does anyone experienced it?
: can i do it myself or give it to mechanic?
: Thanks
