Leveling Springs are installed!

These are leveling springs. Yea I'm excited Overall installation took less than 45 minutes and was very easy. Ride is not far from stock, a bit stiffer, but that's cool. Also I have no noise at all. Big thank you to Jeff at Truckshop.com and my Brother-in-law for the install. Here are a couple of pics.

We marked where the lights were before we started, and my brother-in-law thought they looked low. After leveling springs, he adjusted the lights, but it didn't take too much from where they were.

I LOVE the look! I have the same springs...I do not experience any noise when I have no load, but on my recent trip to Maine with the HHR fully loaded with luggage, I experience a noise every time I hit a bump. The bottom coils rub when the vehicle has a full load. It wasn't a big deal though, I just turned up the radio and kept rollin' my level ride down the interstate!
