Hey everyone. I'm looking for some advise as to where to take my car to get the following things done.: BAT Europian Handling Kit installed, new strut mounts installed, and front and rear sway bar links installed.

Just wondering if anyone knows of any places that they trust to do this stuff and that would be a decent price.

I'm located in New Brunswick

Thanks!
 
If no one else posts about any places, look in the phone and just start making some calls...sometimes that's how you can "discover" a different shop that might do really good work...:idea:

...from personal experience, I've done that with good results :)
 
i dunno any shops, but if you can color in the lines of a coloring book then you can swap out the suspension on these cars.
 
It seems doesnt seem hard to do the install yourself.... If you have a garage Im willing to help... Just need to grab a Chilton or Haines Repair Manual and I wont mind grabbin that i need one anyways... And i need to talk to whoever sells those repair CDs....

when are you planning to do this? if i can help you i will as well...no need for the manual if that's the case either. it's easy...doable in about 3 hours if you get all the tools (mcphereson spring compressor basically) and a case of beer.
 
You could try Wicked Motorsports. I'm a member of tristatetuners.com and that is where some people from there are telling me to go. They're in Brick, NJ & the number is 732-904-9000.

If you do decide to do it yourself and people are coming by to help let me know cause I'm only about an hour away in Philly.

sundays are great for me too actually. I'm currently trying to get all the parts i need from someone in the classifieds who totalled their svt. Otherwise, I'm gonna have to save up some money an buy everything new (dont know how long that will take i only work part time cause of school).

Any help woul be very much appreciated
 
I have a spring compressor. It's not a super good one but it did the job when we installed the BAT kit on my ride.
