H&R Sport install

Toomstone · 09-23-2007, 06:24 PM

If I have all the right tools... will it be tough to install the springs myself? My friend has installed springs on his 2001 Jetta but I'm worried my e92 328 will be a lot different. Thanks

it is a lot different. i believe that to keep the performance without messing up the main frame

I personally wouldn't do it myself, the responsibility is way too high.

Followed DIY, It took me almost 7 hrs for the first time, The second time I installed Eibach and koni FSD, only took me 4 hrs. I did it my seft because they charged me $350 for the labor, but if you live in CA the labor is alot cheaper, mostly $150. Ask Long to install if you live in LA.

werd $150 isn't necessarily the case though. most shops will charge quite a bit more than that. i know a place that will do it for $170 though machiii.net
