Spring Install

Post by gm73 »

Help guys. I got a set of H&R springs that I need to install. I need to find a shop in southern California that could install them because I don't have the tools or space to do them myself anymore. Nobody knows these cars or won't install G8 springs in a chevy. Any suggestions or previous encounters with shops would be greatly appreciated. THANKS

where in SoCal, and how far are you willing to go to get the work done?

Steve Walker might have a suggestion....PM me for another suggestion.

SS owners in SoCal may be able to suggest a shop if you're in the LA area. Look for Art Burgess, screen name Aburg2 http://www.ssforums.com/forum/457001-post10.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Yea would love to do it at the shop I work at. Not only for the business but I would also like to see how it comes together.

Probably need it for most of the day. We are in Arcadia.

Heh, quit telling the shops they're G8 springs! They're proven to fit, so they're Caprice springs. ;)
