Backyard Mechanics

[gach2]

any backyard mechs here willing to help me out change my suspension?

and probably the passenger side control arm

located in sydney

would rather someone show me while doing it as well

willing to pay obviously

have read how to do it

but dont have the tools and rather not attempt it by myself the first time

hope someone here can help out

thanks

where abouts in syd?

when were you wanting to do it?

its pretty easy as long as you have some basic tools

[oweban]

Not too sure about control arms, but the suspension/coilovers themselves are very easy to do; if I can do it, everyone can

[gach2]

im located near parramatta

though dont mind travelling

it seems easy

though im still pretty cautious to try out myself

also i dont have much tools

im hoping if i do it once this way

the next time i could do it myself

thanks for the replies

hey, if you wanna come up to texi this weekend (sunday) for a bit, i'd be happy to have a chat and help out a bit (between runs).

[gach2]

thanks for the offer cpd though im flat out this weekend

would have loved to

but i cant

plus im trying to organise coilovers instead of spring shock combo that i have access to atm

would prefer doing this is in 2 weeks as im free then (or even the 2 weeks following that)

no worries man, coilovers are your best bet. I got the BC Racing coilys from JustJap, work a treat.

Hmm, we'll see what's goin on then. Might have time free.
