This is a link for the rear install. I can't find the front but just look you should be able to find it. After you get it all installed just go to get an alignment its really important you do that.

Lol yeah I would love to but money is tight. Would rather use that 300 bones for my new flash and boost pill!!
I was an apprentice for 3 years just never worked on any Lancers so was just looking for some tips.
Thanks all for posting up, it is greatly appreciated!

In the world of cars there is always someone that knows a quicker or better way. I am sure I would have no problem doing this taking my time. I'm not too proud to ask around when some people on this site may know more then me.

A mcpherson setup is the same regardless of the car. Take out the assembly, remove the spring, reverse. It's not like you can remove the shocks with the strut assembly in the car anyways. Well maybe you can, but it wouldn't be very safe.

OK so im voodooing this thread back because i bought springs and all springs are practically the same when being put on, however i figured it would be easy to install until i looked at the front springs and all the **** attached to em and i lost a lot of confidence in myself. So to anyone out there any how-tos on front spring installation?, rear springs are cake, front ones look very worrying. So everyone and anyone let me know. Thanks

couldnt find this video to save mah life, i searched my butt off and couldnt find any videos on how to do it. But seemed much easier then it looked once under the car. I thought for sure i was going to not be able to do it but this makes it look simple thanks
