Wydz, let me know when you're ready to install it. Happy to help out for cheap or free w/food/drink and I have all the tools except a spring compressor (rent it from O'Reilly's). If you dont have your springs already, John (NewZJ) in Gig Harbor has a set of BG springs (I think?) he's looking to sell.

I second the air tools/impact wrench suggestion. Get a breaker bar to further tighten your nuts.

Well, Brad, since you asked... The strut bolts are pretty strong. So strong that took a 5' breaker bar and a couple pull ups on said bar to snap the head off of the bolt. The bolt head flew 20 feet and made a nice "ping" noise on the garage door. Apparently I flipped the lever on the ratchet head when I put the socket on the second bolt and didn't pay attention to which direction I was pulling. This happened on a Saturday 5 minutes after the dealer closed.
This bolt isn't widely stocked at the dealerships and the upper and lower bolts are two different sizes. I ordered the wrong one first thing on Monday and Wednesday I got the right one. I'm not likely to make that mistake again.
