I mean, it's tough to get to anything under the car at stock height and once its lowered, even worse.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I have the following instructions that you posted earlier in this thread.

Bush Timing

Step 1. Lift the car on a two post lift and raise it.

Step 2. Loosen the following bolts/nuts:
Front:
---Inner Control Arm Bushing
---Inner Radius Rod
Rear:
---Trailing Arm Bushings (both ends)
---Toe Rod Bushings (both ends)
---Lower Control Arm Bushings (Inner)
---Upper Control Arm Bushings (Rearward)
---Lower Strut Bushings

-- Drive it around the parking lot slowly and onto the alignment rack.
-- Re-torgue bolts.

Alignment (Street use only)

Front
Caster: No Factory Adjustment
Camber: -.75
Toe: ZERO

Rear
Camber: ZERO or as close to ZERO as possible
Toe: IN .10

Improved rear tire wear, better on center steering feel all round better driving feel.
Do you have access to a lift?
