How to Install Coilovers! (NB Miata)

[@bransonclayton]

First off I'm glad to see the younger generation willing to learn. But can I give you one suggestion given to me from a old school mechanic missing digits. Lose the bracelets,watch,rings or necklaces. They will only distract you at best or seriously hurt you at worst. Don't stop learning.

[@kayachan5198]

you have a real talent for video production, your style is perfect for you, your voice, the audio levels, the clips etc - do you have another channel? if not, why?

[@thecarsmith]

Thank you so much for your kind words! I actually just made another channel not too long ago, but it's mostly just videos I make of my friends and I messing around on games and stuff.

@@thecarsmith i'm just a stranger on the internet but maybe it could be an area for you to focus on because like i said you have serious talent

So, just for the right perspective - It took my son and I 3 hrs to do the fronts (in the driveway) by ourselves (replacing the whole thing, so we did not have to take the old ones apart), and 2 hrs the rears with a help of a neighbor. Again, that's WITHOUT taking old coilovers apart. This is NOT easy, and having 2 people do it definitely helps a lot. But, this is not something you are going to do in an hour or two...

[@thecarsmith]

Yes you're right. This is not something that takes an hour. Anyone wanting to do this should make sure their schedule is clear for the day. And if they're not so experienced then probably an extra day in case something doesn't go smoothly.

[@bessarion1771]

@@thecarsmith Yep. In addition, it would not hurt to have a set of new sway bar links and, unless you did it recently, a set of new upper control arms. We didn't and now we'll need to redo some of that job to replace them (ball joints are shot).

i want an na are the coils and swingarm etc the same on different models ?

[@thecarsmith]

@@Elonmusky_ very similar with some slight differences. Also the coilovers you would get are the ones for the NA obviously
