$ 40.00 is the great price...Randy is the TSW suspension guru, most places can charge you up to $100.00 or more. If interested I suggest you take advantage of this great deal.

haha, you guys are funny. Yes, I am the suspension guru. I have 18 Scion spring installs under my belt. I wrote the book on spring installs (well ok, Nacy wrote the book, i did the work). Heres a step by step we put together:

I have heard some dealers charging $300 just for labor, OUCH!
I am available evenings and weekends if you need the install.

Randode,
I think I would like you to reinstall my springs for me for that price and if you want, help me put on the hotchkis swaybars. Name your price, I started to do the sway bars, but wimped out when I was laying under the car when it was up on the jack stands. Started to see my life flash before me. Let me know what you think. Thanks.

I hear conflicting reports about needing a four-wheel alignment with the new springs. What's your experience?
Thanks! :D
In Vegas, I do goldline springs installed for $225.00, I am an authorized Goldline Dealer. I am doing three cars today. I will ship goldlines anywhere in the U.S. . BillTurner

some have said that an allignment is not necessary since the camber does not change, but tires are not cheap. I would get the front end alligned just to make sure the toe is set properly. This will aslo correct the crooked steering wheel issue from the factory. A rear allignment is not needed.
No problem on the Sway bars. I know the front one is a big deal, the rear one is pretty easy and I can do that one on my own. Guess I will have to take it to a shop for the front one. On the springs, how long does it take from experience? I think mine are just a little loose or something and it is causing some creaking when turning up a hill and such. And are you still available in the evenings to take these spings on?
