anyone in socal...

is anyone willing to install my trd springs?

only in socal please. i live in chino.

thank you.

can u tell me how much and where u purchased the trd spring from? tks~ i am in rowland hts.

Why don't you just get it done by a shop. Or even a wild idea...try and tackle the job yourself. Its not that hard, and you can rent the tools at your local autostore.

I agree, try it yourself. Might be fun, and you will learn more about your car that way.

yeah ive decided im gonna do it myself. maybe my friends can help out,
thanks guys. can i rent all tools to install springs at autozone maybe?

^All you'll really need for the job is a set of spring compressors (you can rent it at autozone... you pay a $40 deposit, and you have 3 months to return it, and when you do, they give you your $40 back), a good socket wrench (probably like a 1/2" drive or larger) and good variety of socket sizes, a breaker bar, and a knife to cut the bump stops.

Actually looking into installing some TRD springs myself. My only drawbacks are the hills in my area and if I am actually competent enough to install them. It would be nice to get some rims and tires too but I got to make a cutoff somewhere. Tax money has its limits.:)

oh btw how do i do the alignment when its installed?

^Yes, you will need an alignment for sure. After I installed mine, my alignment was so all over the place, you wouldn't believe. :lol:

How long did you drive before you got an alignment?

^I finished lowering the car at around 6pm. Drove home from my friend's place where I was working on it. The next morning, I took it for an alignment.

how much is alignment?

^Like around $70 or so for most alignment and tire shops.

oh ok. thanks

Depending on how low, or how much your alignment is off, you might want to look into camber bolts.

whats the difference between a strut spring tool and a coil spring compressor?
which one do i rent?
