Just finished installing your Springs and Struts/Shocks. Ride is much softer than I'm used to. I have it on 4 clicks right now and will probably take it up to 6 or 8.
Impressed by the overall quality with one exception; the front brake hose bosses are slightly thicker and the opening a little tighter. I had to whittle away with a dremel to get the brake line in there. Good thing I don't live where they salt the roads.
I also have a tip for installation that was not in your instructions. When installing the front struts, your instructions say that it is difficult to install into the lower knuckle and take your time. The Pro Tip here is to use the stock scissor jack to push up on the lower A arm, Crank it until there is just a little pressure on it, then grab the top of the rotor and push and pull it. Crank another turn or two and grab the rotor again. Rinse and repeat.
