Good to know. Where do you have the shocks set at? Also, the black plastic part on the top of the rear shocks, does that need to be removed before install, or is that a dust cover? Sorry for all of the questions, just trying to get more information. Not too many people have these, so it's nice to share.

I'm thinking of starting with 2 turns from full soft all the way around.

 

Fully tight you know it. LOL Black plastic part? I'm trying to recall, I've had them on for awhile now. Do you have a pic?

 

LOL if it ain't tight, it ain't right! I'll snap a pic tomorrow, they're tucked away in the garage and I can't get to them without moving the car. It looks like a dust cover, but I think it's bolted on.

 

I was just referencing to other torx bits. No, I wasn't using a screwdriver on my suspension. Im just saying they're not all that common and when they pop up, you usually have to break stride and get the tool. And I've had numerous bits and heads strip on me. IMO. They've been a PITA

 

I managed to install the back shocks today. After getting the wheels off, jacking the car up, and getting the rear sway bar out of the way, the shocks are quite easy. A 15mm deep well socket or ratchet wrench/straight wrench takes care of most of the work. You'll need a 17mm socket to put the FRPP shocks in when you install the top nut inside the trunk.

 

If you're looking for a set of Torx bits, Sears has a 6-piece set under their Evolv name for 3/8" ratchets for $10.

 

Thanks for the heads up. Ratchet bits right?

 

Yep, here's a link:

Did you get it done?

 

Just the rears for now. Going to get the fronts done on Friday.
