Question Where should I go for a Spring instalation?

Come on guys... somebody has to know.

WTF!!! You guys rip me apart at meets for having a 4x4 G but nobody can help me find a reputable shop?

I also need a reputable alignment facility as well.

Anyone?

ur driveway is a good spot, jack the b*tch up and get under it,

the rears are a joke to do. you can make a spring compressor from some 2x4's and 2 long bolts from home depot for like $15.

Just do BBQ at the house and then you can get free installs

Borrow spring compressors from Autozone and do it yourself. The rear is crazy easy and the fronts shouldn't be too bad...but it did take a few of us 2 days to do mine...but that's a unique situation, hahaha.

Thanks guys...
Ya know, I've done all my own work up to now (minus the tint) but the fronts have me hesitant only because I've never done them before and I've heard the X is a b!tch to work on. The rears I could have done inside of 15 minutes, but the fronts look like a PITA.
I love the BBQ/Install party, but I'm limited in the tools I have and that's the major reason why I'm trying to avoid the DIY. I'm a little worried about getting an hour into it and having a bolt that won't move or having something come up that I can't get past.

Larry, your shop is over 2 hours away from me!
You wanna PM me with what the install is gonna run?

I'll check them out, but I wish they has a website.
I'll have to swing by and talk to them and see the shop.

Corey, if you're serious, I'll find a weekend that I can kick the wife and kids out and we can have a mini-meet/driveway mod install bash with burgers/dogs etc.
Heck, I'll throw in a few lobsters and some steak for a house call like that.

I know Ian's been itching to get his car detailed in my driveway too.
