fitting yourself?

fitting yourself?

I wish, would save a fortune, but I dont have access to the correct tools.

 

[punto_matt]

Spring clamps and axle stands?

 

[1.8Stilo]

they are easy and the tools required cost less than the labour charge at a garage

 

[Tris Harris]

I paid to get mine fitted, wish i hadnt though as it was £92 i could of spent on other stuff lol

 

[payney1]

How much more is going to cost you on insurance?

Phoned mine today and said it cost just under £50 (direct line) on top of the policy, which tbh, that's what i expected.

Cost to fit - phoned some guy who fitted some suspension on mates daewoo, he said as he does not know the setup without looking at it £150 worst case scenario, but i think it will be more closer to £100 than £150

Eibach sport lines coming soon

£35 for me, but only 5 months left on my policy

If its someone doing it at mates rates it should be £50. Garage i wouldnt pay more than £100. Depends if they have trouble getting a lower bolt off the strut as they usuall seize on.

Yeah, one of the guys on here offered to do it for me last week so shouldnt cost more than a couple of pints

Springs are out of stock, so got 7 days to wait

 

[punto_matt]

My springs took a month to come!

 

[adamcot]

Ive got a bit fed up with waiting for my springs to arrive, so thought I would share a few new pics.

New red-lined front grille:

And one from Brooklands Test Hill

Springs are supposed to be here on Tuesday, so hopefully will be on the car next week

Comments/suggestions welcome!

Yeah fix your knackered suspension lol. too much adverse camber FTMFL.

I suppose if your getting new springs it would all need doing again anyway.
