Default Coilover install

Hey guys,

So I just got my set of JIC Magic FLT-A2 coilovers and need to know where I should go to get them installed that has the ability to corner balance during the adjustment process. The goal of getting coilovers was to lower the stance and adjust it just the way I want it, but most shops don't even know what corner balancing is. There must be a lot of people willing to throw out performance for a cheap install. Also, if anyone knows of a shop that does installs and corner balancing, how much should I be expecting to pay?

Thanks

Well you can either go down to Tacoma to Fastlane2 because they are a BIG JIC distributer and I talked with the owner and he said he has down several VIP style cars so he'll know what he's doing. OR you can go to 8 Velocity in Lynnwood which would probably be cheaper and closer to you and you when you speak to the owner just tell him Shonn sent you. It may help. lol.

Talk to Jet. Yes, thats his name. He is a sponsor for TopSecret and I was also talking to him about AirRunners w/install. He might be able to help you with your Coilovers and corner balancing. What is corner balancing?

I have had bad experience with Fastlanes and they dont have experience workers their My experience, not everyones. And I dont know the owner. But I am sure if you post about Fastlanes, you will get different views.

Corner balancing, is used when you have adjustable height systems to ensure that the proper weight is on each wheel.
