Ohioans?

So when I get enough cashola to buy one of these lift kits(spacer or suspension still deciding) I was wondering if anyone in Ohio would like to make some extra mula and help me install it? I don't have any of the tools except basic one's but I'd really like to see how it's done in an effort to learn more about these lil bad@ss machines we all drive. Let me know, I'll bring the beer, provide some food and throw in $50 or whatever sounds fair..

Hmm...So you're roughly 2 tanks of gas away and a hotel room.

$125-$150 trip + food + beer + $50 hand slap = close to having a mechanic do the install... sorry bro.

Definitely check out the regional forum for your area, like the midwest forum. I needed a hand with removing some rear spring isolators since I'm such a newb, and was helped out pretty quickly.

Good luck, and keep us posted!

There are a bunch of people in your area LIBAR8R. Don't worry. You're doing the right thing to install it at a party instead of paying someone to do it. It's much better to have the first-hand knowledge. Give this post some time and the guys in your area will post up. But also post in your local chapter forum too.

Oh sure. There are a few people that will help install the lift . Post your thread here and you will get some answers..

PM me where you're located in Cleve., I'm about 20 mins. from the West side of Cleve. in Grafton near 82&57.

I'm not going to install it for you either, but I'll lend a hand and walk you through it so you get the hands on experience.

I'll be in SE Central Ohio around mid to late December (Lancaster).

NE Ohio is a good trip though.

I'll be in Cleveland next week, but I probably can't do a whole lot while wearing a suit as I'll be there on business. :wink:

If you need help let me know, I run over to Cleveland all the time for work and loaf or ?? Or you can come here I have a couple of shops that can compress the springs and most all other tools needed to do the job and a 2 car garage to work in.

Ohioans?
