The install should be pretty straight forward. The coilovers come completely assembled. So it's just like doing a "ready strut". 3 nuts at the top and 2 bolts at the bottom.
Boy was I wrong. Not only does Belltech ship these coilovers no where near ready to install. Once you get them setup per their instructions, they don't just bolt up.
The three studs at the top don't quite line up with the mounting holes in the sping pockets. And they're quite a bit longer than the factory strut assembly (imagine that, a "drop" suspension part that's actually longer/taller than the factory part).
To remove the factory strut it was remove the sway bar end link, unbolt the three top mounting nuts, remove the two lower mounting bolts and simply push down on the control arms and the strut assembly drops free.
Installing the coilovers requires disconnecting the tie rod and separating the upper ball joint from the spindle, in order to get the lower control arm to drop low enough to get the longer "drop" coilover to fit.
Belltech really dropped the ball on these. Their directions tell you to follow removal procedures to reinstall......they forgot to mention all the other steps.
