The guys is well known and does it for $75 shipped to your door. Night and day difference.
This guy has been around for quite awhile, he was just coming onto the national racing scene when I retired from racing in 2004. I know he was doing club and regional stuff before that.

Just tap the screws lightly and they will fall out... make sure you keep the washers and don't lose them, when you put the damper back on it MUST have play again like before. Maybe you need new washers then, but you wont know until you put it back on if it is to tight and DO use a Torque wrench to put it back on.

Another gen4 owner had an issue recently where the plastic washer wore out and the bottom of damper rubbed the mount badly. Ruined the damper. Make sure when you put the damper back on the damper moves upward but does not contact the mount at all. The washer only goes on one way and overtightenibg it will deform the washer so just a heads up.
