Tony, I hate to be a downer but if you lack these basic tools, or unless you have alot of money or VERY good friends that are handy, you might as well sell your Firebird because you prctically can't even replace a cotter pin without using a floor jack. And don't even think about getting under the car without jack stands or your momma will be very sad one day soon. We all have to start somewhere but I just think about all the tools it takes to do a simple spring replacement and if I had to go out and get them all to do it...well it kind of boogles the mind.
