Installing springs..Need help!!

[MITCH's SI]

i have a question to all the "lowered people" i just got my eibach sportlines and the rear upper mount. I'm getting tired of waiting for coils to come out
I've never lowered a car before so I'm very new to this.
the instructions say to cut the bump stop 40mm's (do i really have to cut the bump stop??) and they also sent two "crush sleeves" i have no idea what those are

can anyone help me out with this..maybe someone can make a DIY for this??

Thanks!

unless you want to bounce off the bump-stops every time you go over a bump (yes, they live up to their name) then trim as advised. New ones are cheap.

I also need help in this.. I wanna get 8th gen springs + upper isolators for my 9th gen.

You also need this. Spring Compressors to remove the springs from the struts.

Harbor freight has a spring compressor for like $7 right now. It'll probably only last the one job but how often will you need it right?

My brother bought one to install Konis on his car. I'm gonna use it when I work on my suspension.
