Well, the fronts are in. Took about 2 hours with hand tools to do them. Rear shock bolts are seized nice and tight. Either going to rent a compressor and air tools this weekend, or have my mechanic do the swap.
HUGE difference with just doing the fronts. I marked the top strut bolts before I removed the old ones, and alignment is pretty close. Still going to have the shop do it once the rears are done.
Car rides a lot smoother, and is a lot more controlled in corners. Less body roll by far.
I was pleasantly surprised with the change in just the fronts. :D
This weekend, the rears (hopefully)...
