Lowering springs in San Gabriel Valley

radgator1 · 06-03-2009, 12:19 PM

Actually I want to take the lowering springs off my e90 and put back on the stock set. Anyone know of a shop or individual who does springs for a reasonable price in my area?

For the old timers, Matt put these on for me originally. Whatever happened to that guy? Last time I talked to him he was selling his tools and joining the Military. Very cool guy.

Yeah, I was thinking I might need to. I'm sure he can point me to someone if he doesn't do it himself, but was trying not to bug the guy if someone reading here knew of a good place.

WOW...$175... I wish I lived in the 626 area still. I would do it for a case of beer or something. If u want to drive down to San Diego, ill do it during a free weekend.

My dad's shop is in Monrovia and my brother's garage is in that area too, so if you still need someone send a PM my way.

Bring it to me, I will do it for $120, and include setting your alignment back into proper specifications for a factory height car.

Work/Labor is guaranteed lifetime.

Send me a PM and I will provide my phone number to you.

I will match and beat anyone's price. Have been doing it that way for 7+ years.

It's not that serious to compress OEM springs with proper compressors and tools.

Like I said, its not that serious with proper tools and techniques. The E9x platform is actually not a difficult job. Easier than most in fact.
