Help: Suspension shop in 818?

I need a reputable shop to install my Hotchkis sways. I would do it myself, but I do not have the tools to do so. I need a shop preferably in the Northridge area, but anywhere in the valley will do. If you know a place, please let me know.


Thanks,
Jeff

My man Omar (screen name - soad) can do that - he installed my coupe middy for me. Also did my OEM front lip, too.

Hit him up, he's in North Hollywood, a great guy, and reasonably priced.

^^Mid-pipe? Front lip? A 16 year old high school kid can do that, it doesn't take skills to do that, but cool, im sure your man is better at more things too.

Hotchkis sways are easy, any regular mechanic can do it, i got mine installed at good year haha.

You know Some people just don't have the tools, or room to do work on their cars.

They quoted me $95 for the sway bar install. What's R&D?

My buddy installed my springs for a case of beer! my mid-pipe was for $40. He only spoke Spanish, so what do you think was gonna happen?
brakes i did myself at my buddies house. Even though i cannot touch my car at my complex, i was still able to find places to do it! But good luck
