Actually he said be right back... And never came back ! Lol.
Where did you get the shop manual ? Is that downlo able on the world wide internet ?

Ha, yeah, I was going to shoot the final section of the film after the alignment, but never got to it. I forgot all about it until after the editing was done. Oh well.

For the shop manual, I don't have the actual manual to use. I had copies of the Ford Racing suspension kit instructions and friends who got me copies of the shop manual for the front and rear suspension.

It was amazing how long it took to do the project when trying to film and doing it alone. About 3 weeks later I installed ST springs on my brother's Fiesta and it took us 30 minutes working together to have it done. Taking the struts somewhere to have the springs installed is a huge help. I took everything apart on a Thursday night, dropped off the struts and springs at lunch on Friday, picked them up after work, and had the car back together Friday night. If you can grab a friend to help, this project goes really easy. Taking everything apart is easy with one person, but a second to help with the struts going back in is a huge help.
