    question about lowering springs installation

    hey guys...i just got my tein h techs today, but the problem is wherever i went to ask the price of installation, people tell me it's about $200 which is more than what i paid for the springs itself! im just wondering how much everyone paid for installation of their springs.

    It can range from $80 to $700 (at Toyota Dealer :roll: ). You have to look around and you'll eventually find a shop that will have a good price.

    Better yet, install it yourself. It is really not that hard, just time consuming if you dont have power/air tools. I did it myself and it was the first time I ever installed springs. The DIY is pretty straight forward. Save your money, or use it to buy tools.

    So...

    Any good resources for an spring install besides the stickies in this forum? Places that have pictorial guides and/or explicit descriptions of the steps might help me decide if my humble skills are up to the task.

    The instructions on the diy section are straight forward its just a matter of loosening and tightening bolts according to the directions and pictures. It's just a little time consuming with the spring compressors.

    I looked at the last post in that paticular sticky and see what you mean. I read the first two or three posts and though : this is way over my head!

    Thanks for focusing my attention.
