I just glanced at the Haynes manual and they mention drilling out a speed
sensor bracket on ABS equipped vehicles (which mine is).  This only applies
if one is replacing the strut (which I am).  Is there a way around this?

Pretty stupid to permanently rivet the speed sensor to a "consumable" item
on the car!

Subject: [SPOC of PA] KYB & Sprint install


My Sprint 2" springs and KYB GR-2 struts (just fronts) are on order.  I was
wondering whether I should install these myself or take the car to Midas or
something.  I would prefer doing it myself though.

I assume I'll need a spring compressor...which I do not have.  Does Advance
Auto or another auto parts store rent out tools?  I have a floor jack and
two jack stands to put the car on.  Will I need any other special tools?  Is
this a one-person job?  How long would this take for a first-timer?  I also
have a Haynes maual for 1991-1999 S-series.  My car is a 2001 but if the
suspensions are the same then I should be able to use this...right?

Any thoughts are appreciated.
