Does it mean installing new struts, or just raising the struts already on the car
Struts by themselves will not raise a car.............. Elevate the car on a jack or lift winch so that it is safely and securely above the ground. Remove the wheels using a lug wrench, setting the lug nuts aside where they will not be lost. Disconnect the sway bar link from the lower control arm on each side of the vehicle. Unbolt the outer tie rod ends as well as the lower bolt through the shock/coil assembly. Disconnect the coil and strut assembly from each tire. Write down the alignment of the top plate of the strut studs to the lower shock hole. You'll need to know this before compressing the spring or else you will need to install the lift kit all over again. Use a spring compressor to compress the springs on each tire. Use a spring compressor to compress the springs on each tire. Install your new cars lift kit and when finished have a 4-wheel alignment done on it. As for getting it back to the original specs you will need to replace everything that was removed and that could be between $500.00 to $2000.00 depending if you use new or salvage yard parts.........
