  • Help With Suspension Install- Perth Area?

    Hi,

    I'll be receiving my Bilstein/Dobinson suspension next week and will be looking to fit shortly afterwards. I'm not too keen on paying $450ish to get it fitted and am pretty confident on fitting it myself having done it before in a 4Runner (the rear at least, I put bj spacers on the front end). The problem is that i'm new to this area and don't have anyone to lend a hand, which I think would be pretty much essential. And I don't fancy calling my wife out of the house every time I need a lift with something or a spanner passed to me...

    I'm wondering if anyone in the Perth area (that's done this before) would be willing to help in exchange for cash/cartons/help with something else that needs doing, etc.

    No worries if not, I just thought i'd ask before getting it done professionally.

    Cheers

    Hi Don
    You would do well to spend the rest of this evening reading through the 120 Series DIY Suspension installation threads.
    You can then decide if you want to tackle the job or not.

    Oh and do yourself a favor, head out to your vehicle prior to starting with a can of your number one toolbox in a can. (Inox,CRC,WD40,RP7)
    Give the bolts and nuts related to the suspension upgrade a spray each day or so leading up to the task, to help with removal.
    Cheers

      I have to +1 on this installation thread by amts, I completed this "grande" version front on rear in a arvo follow instructions pretty fool proof, I already had a good jack after owning a Jag and a good breaker bar.

        Easy enough job on your own. Even easier if you have access to a hoist.

            Thanks for the replies. Yes, I've looked at all the online instructions I can find and also have a set of written instructions from John at Zordos, plus his kind offer of phone support if necessary.

            Killswitch- that would be great mate, thanks for the offer. You can email me on [email protected] if you'd be willing to help out.

            Thanks again
