It's not a matter of you (or anyone else) doing it for us.  It's a matter of
dealing with the rusted-on parts.  I had trouble simply trying to remove the
RSB bracket bolts.  I just received my new Eibach springs I won on eBay, and
I'm dying to put them in  and finally replace the HO Shop linears.  However,
I don't think it's going to be easy or fun OR a 30-minute job, I expect the
same frustration as Robert.  Looking forward to your pictures.  Maybe you
should make a video like Mark and Josh did for the clutch and 60k.

I'm the opposite of you George, I have no problem with electrical, but
mechanical stuff (on this car) is always a PITA.  I've removed engines and
trannies from my other cars, but this car......maybe the SHO gods just don't
want me messing them or the car.
