ok....... so to make a long story short, i bought the eibach springs for my tc, had them installed by a well known body shop, started hearing noise as i drove away from the body shop after installation(like something was loose) brought it bak, they tell me i need a new suspension they try n charge me 699 for evrythin...............
went to scion dealer to get 2nd opinion seems like the idiot person who installed them didnt tighten the bolt right( or he probably just did it on purpose to try and get me to buy a 700 dollar suspesnion) any ways just be careful where you guys bring it too IMO bring it to scion they take kare of yu pretty well so if anywun heres noise its not suspension, i guess toyota has a special way to tighten up the bolts from what the guy told me..................
good luck

 

Sorry to hear about that. The shop that you took it to should take care of it. Sounds like their mistake.

BTW-That was one hellva run-on sentence.

 

yeah it was but thanks to the scion dealer they fixed it right and they only charged me for half hours worth of work, but the guy at scion advised me to take my reciept and tell the guy who installed them to reimbursse me

 

Glad to hear it was taken care of.

On another note, can you spell or is your spelling that way on purpose? Really worried this is what our new generation is producing for literacy.

 

no i can spell but when im at work i cant really sit here and sit here and make sure i accidently dont press the wrong key

 

Hell yea dude! I would get a statement in writing (From Scion/Toyota Dealer) about how things weren't done correctly, and ask for a refund or some sort of reimbursement. If they don't try and do something to resolve, than I would take them to small claims court. That was BS and it could have made you have an accident. At the very least they should pay you back what you had to pay Toyota/Scion for repairing their shotty workmanship. Keep us posted on what the outcome is.

 

ok good!

 

just DIY, save the money and youll know its done right.

 

^true unless your one of the people that cant tell the difference between a wrench or a ratchet... scary i know but i know people like that....

 

I have my suspension in the mail and wouldnt attempt it myself for the first time at least. Get a buddy like im doing who knows what they are doing and have him show you. The springs can be dangerous if not done right. I knew a guy who got injured bad from the spring snapping back at him. But that shop should have fixed it for free no questions. asked. I do know my tools but have never really worked on cars besides intake, exhaust, and stereo equipment installs.

 

You're a complete retard if you think this is true.

 

it makes sense becaue the back ones were done right and so was the left front side, seriously think about it i brought it back to him twice he said he looked at it and didnt find ____ wrong with it so dont b tellin me i a ****** retard

 

No seriously. You're a complete moron if you think he's going to put your life at risk for about 20 bucks.

 

first off, this thread has nothing do to with dangerous lowering springs that we should beware of.

it should be about how you went to a shop that did a ____ poor installation. it happens.

you should have instead made a buyer/seller thread about the shop that did the installation.

 

you all be hating on him lol

 

i ain't hating on him, hell, the punisher is one of my favorite all time movies ever, so this kid atleast has some good taste. he just doesn't know wtf he is talking about with regards to his springs, and the shop, and his post and so on.

 

I think this is a perfect reason to be hating.

I'd like someone to explain to me, how it's possible to run coilovers and shocks simultaneously.

 

^lol

 

that true i didnt see that part i had coil overs on my honda they are all one piece.

 

thats why i did it myself, saved installation and its not that hard
