I cant find a torsion tool so will have to pay someone to install. I have no want to purchase on due to not needing it more than once. What is a fair price to pay to have them installed.

I couldn't rent, borrow, or steal a key removal tool in my area. I couldn't even buy one since no one even carried them in stock. I ended up going to PepBoys and borrowing a 2/3 Gear Pull (7 ton) to do the front keys. It worked VERY well. It was actually a pretty easy job too. Just use some penetrating oil on the parts before hand. I sprayed the keys and bar ends 3 or 4 times the week before I swapped the keys and they still weren't completely happy coming undone. It took me maybe 1 1/2 hours to do the keys and change the shocks.

Best of luck

I paid a tire shock 20 bucks to swap them for me.

1 low hoe do you cut the metal part of the bumpstop off in the front? I plan on doing this to the rear but even with 1/4 of the rubber part cut off it still sits on the perch.
