with the ssc's you just take the old ones off and put the new ones on? dont need to cut any bumstops or whatever. and did you get a alignment after? i see people saying you should and some say you dont have to. dont wanna waste money if i dont have too. suspension noob=me

ya that's all I did. I didn't cut my bump stops, and I rarely bottom out. I'd rather hit the bump stops than bottom out the strut completely. I'd give the springs a few weeks to settle, then go get an alignment. Your toe (I think) will probably be off a little bit. I'd rather get the alignment and save tire wear than need new tires early. It won't be off by much, but enough.
