jpena1285 03-10-2005, 02:41 PM if i was going to get my suspension which would have coilovers, shackles, bilstein is there anyone in so cal, preferable local (ventura county, or la) that would be able to help me out with installation i dont feel like paying a huge amount of money to get it done...what do you guys say?
radtcma 03-10-2005, 02:49 PM get some local socal guys to help.
Spenc121886 03-10-2005, 02:55 PM get some local socal guys to help.
agreed. thats how I got all my sh!t installed was with help from poeple on the board. but i've also had some things done at conejo offroad, which is here in thousand oaks...not too far of a drive for you at all...and their good guys. there is also pure power offroad here in newbury park. but the guy that runs the place is kind of a shmuck in my opinion....
nowhere is going to be cheap though...but if you can find someone to help install your stuff for some pizza and beer, thats the best bet
lowtoydude 03-10-2005, 03:00 PM have a CT meeting at your house with beer, pizza and porn.

prerunner guy 03-10-2005, 04:36 PM if you get like 6 people on it, then you will have it all done in about 2 hours....im down
jpena1285 03-10-2005, 06:20 PM sweet thanks i took out a loan today for 5 so give me a couple weeks and ill hit you guys up..
If you can get down to Riverside we can probably do it at my place. I know Garnet offered, but if for some reason he can't do it (I know he should be a daddy soon enough!) we should be able to use my garage. I have air tools and a car lift so it should be a breeze.
Spenc121886 03-10-2005, 06:30 PM yeah kyle installed my stuff for me . hopefully your truck won't be as cursed as mine was when installing your stuff lol

You just need to cut it off right before the shackle. Its not a big deal at all. I have a cutting torch, so we can just have some fun with it... http://www.CustomTacos.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
