I know it 's easy, but just want to be on the safe side and have my new ichiba v2 properly installed....

Does anyone know a place and how much it may cost to install them?

Thanks.

 

take off the wheels and slap them on , idk...

 

my driveway

 

I'd say this depends on what spacers you have. If they are like 15mm or more and have the studs built in, then it's super easy. Just bolt them on like a wheel and then bolt the wheel to the spacer's studs.

If there are no studs on it, then you are expected to get longer studs for the car's axle. Hammering out the OE studs is a little bit harder. (But not too much)

Let's see some before and after shots when you do it! Good Luck!

 

+1, we could get some guys together to bail you out

 

haha thats it i will have to have a party!!!!

 

I've got a sledgehammer to get the old studs out if necessary

 

he calls his penor the sledgehammer!!!!

 

you know it, 3ft long, 20lbs, and you need two hands to swing it


and it loves hitting old studs

what

 

Any of you guys know where I can get springs put on my Z? Sorry to jack the thread but you guys seem like you would know.

 

anywhere. fairly easy to do.

 

same place as the other guy, in your driveway/garage. I put on my s-techs this summer by myself, it was the first time doing springs and it took a little bit of time. It definitely is helpful to have someone assist you in removing the front assembly as you need to push down the hub and pull out the assembly at the same time and its hard to do by yourself (but possible).

also you can borrow spring compressors from autozone for free.

but yeah a little beer/food as an incentive and i'm sure you could get someone to come help you out

 

Time is the issue, and it's my only car so it would need done pretty much in one day.

If any of you guys can do it on a Saturday, I'd pay you. Just PM if you are interested. I'm in the Eastgate area.

Thanks guys

 

It can easily be done in one day, especially with help. Just make sure you have all the appropriate tools necessary. especially a breaker bar, some of those old bolts can get a little tempermental

 

well if you're willing to pay for it you might as well have a shop do it so they can align it afterwards. just a thought.
