thanks for the replies guys...

hmmmmm... so i don't need new springs?

it's a DIY job? i may have access to a lift but i'm not so sure... i looked under the car and saw at least 3 nuts holding the accumulators... i've read that the connectors may pose a problem... any tips? i'll do a search shortly.

... after removing the nuts holding the accumulators... do i do the next steps up top?
