Exclamation Portland OR, coilover shop

I need to do some messing with my suspention. Particularly coilovers, I don't have time to do myself. Which shops would you recommend around Portland OR? I have called 3 shops and all them seem to give me crazy prices(Bmw tax?)


I need an adder spring thrown on front coils and then an alignment. Shops in called want 700+ seems excessive.

If you don't mind the drive, come on up to Federal Way and I can install them for you. Then afterward, drive over to the alignment place and have the alignment done. Could potentially save you a ton of money.

It's not necessary for an alignment though right, since you're not touching the control arms?

Technically, if you're not changing the vehicle's ride height and alignment was in spec, then no, it's not really necessary. However, the OP specifically requested to have an alignment performed so I'm thinking OP's specs are off.

Yes the coils were just installed and I need to mess more with suspention more. The aligment wasn't done after coil install so I definatly need aligment. @zcspec I will PM you if I don't get this don't in the next couple of days. Thanks!
