Trying to find a decent local shop who won't charge arm and a leg? what are you recommendations? I've called couple of places and cheapest quotes I got is $700 with an allignment.

Buy some good beer and head on over. I've got the tools to do it at my house.

You'll still need an alignment somewhere, though.

Fraggle was the first name that came to mind. Awesome steppin up, Fraggle. Reminds me of my Cobra days when we had 20 deep at my place doing pullies, exhausts and a tuner came down for the day. Great times.

Your car already has springs on it. Ask the previous owner which ones.

Please match it up with some shocks, no idea why everyone just ops for springs and then have issues down the road, install is very easy.

Ideally I would like PSS10s but my loan officer (wifey) will not be very happy if she finds out that I dropped $3k just on the "stupid shock set" and don't want to be sleeping in garage for who know who long..lol

^^^ sid the key is alignment...make sure you get a one that is spot on and mark the suspension prior to R & I so that you will be ok driving to to the alignment shop... Fraggle uses deadly force on components if needed, please don't mind the BFH hahahaha!!! Hilarious ... j/k you'll be in good hands
