I looked at the way the all the coil sit on my non-airmatic and it looks to be like any other cars except for the rear, much more like a truck using Shocks instead of struts.

The rear should be extremely easy I have not disassemble the front but it don't look hard either.

I have access to a full body shop and spring compressors. I'm probably going to be doing this myself since I have DIY springs on my last 4 cars.

Anyone would recommend against it?

Careful with the SBC brakes.

Don't worry about the brakes, the job does not interfer with the brakes. Done it myself and no probs at all, you sound like a experienced diy so go for it. Save 300.00 on labor for other mods plus I know it's done right. Money can't buy piece of mind.

You may also throw out the alignment of the front end when you pull the struts out.

yah allignment is already a must. I'm dropping in H&R 1.5 front and 1.3 in back, I hope they can do something about the camber. 19" tires are got damn too expensive to be replacing every 6 months.

Anyone that lowers a car should know to get a alignment after, but as for the camber I know carlab a sponser has k-mac camber correction kits. Hope thats helps.

I poked around Car labs and don't recall seeing front and rear, I believe they only have the fronts

CarLAB

Hi, We do have the K-MAC Camber correction kits for your car both front and rear. However we don't have those in stock right now and it'll need to be special ordered.
