Just curious to know if there are anyone here who is a licensed mechanic and also happen to be in the Chicago area...

I would love to keep the 2 year warranty offered by Raceland if a licensed mechanic were to install the coilovers.

Thanks!

EDIT 12/15/09
I got my Raceland coilovers, Hotchkis front and rear sway bars, and HKS Hi-Power axleback installed last weekend by Will (kNooBz). He's really easy to work with and he will install for a VERY LOW PRICE. If anyone in Chicago area needs help installing anything, contact him.

 

I sell at Oakbrook Toyota. I don't know many of the techs yet, but it doesn't hurt to ask. I know they've dropped a few new Scions...

 

^ I didn't know you were selling over there.

 

Hey Ian!
Yeah - I' ve been here almost a month now!

 

Awesome, I'll have to swing by some time, I'm always going up and down Ogden.

 

i would prefer not to take my car to a dealership unless i knew someone personally there that will install it...as much as i would like to get these coilovers professionally installed, i don't want to spend a fortune on them =\

 

Just install yourself and be careful.
It's not hard.
And chances are if you installed the right and it's a failure on the coil over itself, then Raceland will replace it for you.

 

i would love to be able to install it by myself...but unfortunately, i don't have any of the necessary tools (i don't even have a ratchet!!!). for me, i wanted to get settled down before setting up my own personal tool shop. i just don't wanna have to spend hundreds of dollars on tools only for it to be lost within my apartment.

 

pm sent ;)

 

Hundreds of dollars on tools?
I've spent maybe $150 on tools..
And I know where every single tool I own is.

 

Well i feel you should get it installed it yourself

 

Well you should have to install it on your own

 

we(3 of us - at least two is a good idea) installed my Konis in an hour & a half (no pro wrenches there).
I was the spring compressor...

Just don't do it without someone who REALLY knows what he's doing. The guy who headed the operation prepares his & another race car

 

thanks for all the help...but Will (KNooBz) helped me install them for a small fee. He's a really chill and easy-going guy...was really easy to work with.

He installed my coilovers, front & rear sway bars, and axleback. Also, helped me clean/buff up the front end of my car. I'm loving my new tC now...

 

glad to hear you got it all taken care of; now post up pics ;)

 

i will i will...i've been meaning to take some pics of my car. but the i don't want pics of all the salttttt argghhh. gonna get a car wash soon heh
