I'll probably order some tomorrow then, should I do any up front or no? 5mm maybe? I can't decide.

A little update.
Removed the drivers side assembly in about 40 minutes. Ran into a couple minor things that we had to figure out but once we did it was simple to remove.

Then we removed the passenger side in about 15 minutes.

The car sits in my driveway on jack stands right now for one reason and one reason only... it's Easter. Every store is closed except Home Depot and they don't have the right tool we need to remove the top cap or "hat" on the strut.

I only have 2 jack stands and we didn't feel like making a third trip to Home Depot to pick up a couple more to do the rears, plus we're exhausted because I was out there at 7:45 jacking the car up... so we'll work on that tomorrow.

It would be so simple if I just had the right tool .

I was hoping the same thing dude lemme tell ya hahaha. That's ok. I know it'll be done within the next couple of days. Everything seems to be a lot easier than I had anticipated too which is always good.
