they have a video on their web-site which walks you though the install.
does not look too hard.
looks a little easier than doing a full-size chey truck.

This is a link for the rear install. I can't find the front but just look you should be able to find it. After you get it all installed just go to get an alignment its really important you do that.

Lol yeah I would love to but money is tight. Would rather use that 300 bones for my new flash and boost pill!!
I was an apprentice for 3 years just never worked on any Lancers so was just looking for some tips.
Thanks all for posting up, it is greatly appreciated!

In the world of cars there is always someone that knows a quicker or better way. I am sure I would have no problem doing this taking my time. I'm not too proud to ask around when some people on this site may know more then me.

A mcpherson setup is the same regardless of the car. Take out the assembly, remove the spring, reverse. It's not like you can remove the shocks with the strut assembly in the car anyways. Well maybe you can, but it wouldn't be very safe.

Because he thinks he's a bad MoFO. I dont recomend it. not safe at all! plus those were the springs for a reg. lancer and are not as stiff.
be smart use spring compressers.
