Default Lowering Springs in SoCal.

Hey guys, I'm looking for a good shop to get my lowering springs installed at, preferably somewhere in Santa Clarita, or down in the Burbank area.

Basically I don't want to pay over $300 for them, and most shops are quoting me stuff like $400+.

My friend has S-Techs and I have TRDS. He wants to sell his car so he's bringing his car back up to stock height, and I'd get his S-Techs, so basically we're swapping springs. We can bring both cars in at once and everything.

Also, this doesn't necessarily need to be a shop. If someone wants to help fellow tC owners out and has the tools we'll be glad to pay you as well.

Sounds like you need to find a couple friends with a garage and supply the pizza...

what about that guy that opened up a shop in fullerton or something like that. Had good prices on installs, I remember he had a good deal on sway install. I'll see if I can find it.

EDIT: found it, sorry it's not closer https://www.scionlife.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=163196

local option is Next Level by your pad and G2 Autosport. To get a good installation pm SCVScions (jason) for install. Great guy! So good luck on your journey. hahaha

I PM'd him, and I'll definitely give those shops a call either today or tomorrow.

If it really is that easy, I may get a friend or two and try to install it myself, but I'm kind of sketch about it.

Hit up Jason scvscions@yahoo.com
He can knock them out in no time. He is an ASC Cert mechanic that knows his stuff.
He is the only that has worked on my car.

G2(that's me lol.....) still exists, just not at that address, but you're right, Micro Image is still there thou. Lowering cars is my least favorite job to do, not to mention 2 at the same time, that's almost a days worth, good luck...

BTW...I can still do installs there, just have to give Garm a heads up.

Haha, I can't wait to get this done.
My car is in the shop until probably late next week, so I'm hoping to get it done after that.

Picking up the springs for $100. Pretty good deal if you ask me, right?
