Default Suspension work

I have tokico struts, goldline springs, camber bolts, and Energy Suspension bushing kit to install. I don't have the tools to do it myself does anyone know any reputable shops that could do the work? How much would work like this cost?

Keep those camber bolts tight. They have no business on a car that shall be driven aggressively.

You can use them, I still have to on the front. Although I drilled and cotter keyed them. I had them on the rear but one of them loosened up and slipped. That cost me $75 for an alignment. I used these from Mopar Super Center (I think) on the rears. Since I'm running the Tokico Illuminas up front, there is no other way to adjust camber that I know of.
Just check them for tightness now and then and You should be OK though.[IMG][/IMG]

Just did some of the similar work. I had the bushings pressed out/in from Speedware motor sport in redmond as for the rest of the work I did all of the install. The biggest pain is putting the A-arms back in the rest is pretty easy. I bent the lower part of the inlet bracket and kicked it in. Not the best way but got it in. As for the rear trailing arm that will need to be pressed as well. the install on that is easy. once you get it all in I would recomend an alignment check. Mine was pretty close but the left rear was off by a substantial distance. all is aligned and balenced as of right now and driving great.

As for a shop in your area( sorry cant help)

Any shop should be able to press the bushings out and repress.

As for cost it cost me $200 to have the bushings pressed that was their shop time.

the alignment was $89, and I had all of the tires balanced at the same time.

The car handles like it is on rails right now.

As for the tools. The main tools I used was a torq wrench and normal sockets. On some of the bolts especially on the front endlinks you will need a wrench and a socket. Or atleast that is what I used. The rest is easy. If you need anymore help than that send me a PM and I will go into better detail. I just finished that up last weekend.

I currently have stage 3 CO, progress front/rear sways, DC front/rear strut tower, energy suspension bushings all around. In the box they also include the 4 washers for the shifter. Not much of a difference but installed all the same..

We can take care of it for you. Is the "kit" front and rear?
