Whats up tony, or to anyone who cares to chime in: Im really interested in buying your belltech 2"/3"-4" lowering kit for my 2010 tahoe ( no auto ride) but im concern as to the installation process... see ,I live in new jersey and there's really no-one around with suv lowering expierance. so is this kit easy enough that a normal mechanic can do ?....... Also can you or someone in this forum help me out by showing or posting an illustration with instructions so i can show it to the local shop so they can have an idea on how this set up is done???? Thanks in Advance..

spindles

spindles

yea i did spindles. My install was straight forward. I had a problem with one of the rotors not coming off so i ended up removing the Huib with the rotor still attached

ok.... thanks for the info sumo... I dont want to impose or anything like that but could you tell me what is a good ball park figure on what this work should cost ???

 

[sumo]

well no more than 2 hrs for front spindle install and no more than 1 hr for rear install. So depending on the hourly rate of the shop you choose

I am sure prices will vary tried three places one quoted $500 another $700 the place i ended up going too quoted $450 and after the job was done only charged $350 said the job was too easy to charge $450, first and probably last time that will ever happen.

Where in Jersey are you? North or South? If anywhere south, I'll give you the shop just outside of Philly that did mine. How far are you willing to drive?

Thanks guys, Im in north jersey about an 90 min from philly....I found a local shop that had never lowered an suv, they are a regular shop that does suspension, trans., wheel balance, etc... I showed them the link that sumo provided me ( thanks again sumo) and they felt confident that they can do the job....I guess after seeing the actuall illustrations and instruction of the job, they figuered it's not as hard as they thought.... My questions is Im I confident with them doing this job... Im a lil nervous about it but I hope it will turn out at the end......FYI... I went with these wheels http://www.saviniforged.com/rim_det...tion&i_submain=e&pf_id=3pnm05&i_subname=black....... they just came out about a week ago.......will post pic soon..
