Default Where to get shocks and lowering springs done in Dallas Area?

I have recently purchased Bilstein shocks front and rear and some lowering springs and wanted to know where a good place in the Dallas area to get them done? A place that is reasonable and if anyone on here can do them as a side job that knows how i can send them money through paypal! I will be back in town this next week on the 24th....If anyone is free that knows how or can point me in the right direction that would be great!


PM me if you wouldnt mind! It alerts me on my comp when i get a message!

Thanks
Chris

You could ask V6 Bird I hear he does work like that and is very good at it.

You could do them yourself with jackstands, spring compressors rented from AZ and a day and a half. Once you get good you can get the fronts off in about 90 mins. Assembling the the spings/struts is the most time consuming part actually.

The backs take 90 mins with no compressing necessary.

GL finding someone.

if you have never used a spring compressor it wouldnt be a good idea doing them youself it can be dangerous....unless you have a wall mount compressor...but lmk about that pm

I did them myself, having never seen spring compressors before. Don't aim them at anyone. Use common sense. Not difficult, or unsafe if you treat the equipment with respect.

Or, maybe I am a genius. But I doubt it.
