Shop recommendation near Seattle for Coilover Instal?
Can anyone out there give a good recommendation for a shop in Western WA (Seattle area) that has some experience installing aftermarket coilover suspension? I'd appreciate the help!

why not tackle the install yourself? with a hoist and power tools while at work, I can change all 4 coilovers and get them installed within 40 minutes. the hardest part is adjusting the exact height your after, cause it's all trial and error

deknick... good to hear that it is relatively easy on my own. I'd tend to prefer spending a couple hundred bucks and save my weekend... I guess I'm getting old and lazy! I may end up going that route, though, if I can't find a shop I can trust at a good price.

the hardest part, is the front.
what coilovers are going in? if they're old heavy, tough and not that adjustable tein's, then they're a *****.
but in the summer when i take off my winter teins and put in my summer teins, after all the tiens are out, i can put in the k-sports in under 20 minutes for all 4 corners, haha

Yea, I love mine, couldn't be happier, except for the spring rate could be higher, but it's a DD, but if your planning on laying frame with it, go for something stiffer, but if it's just a subtle 2 inch or so drop your after, they'll be perfect.
