Hi guys, im looking for someone near the eastern shore of Maryland (also close to Delaware) who is interested in making a little cash. I need a set of Steeda ultra lite springs and Tokica D-specs installed on my 06 Gt. If anyone is interested please pm me and help a fellow stanger out. I would much rather pay somebody on here then a shop that is trying to rip me off. Thanks

 

If you drive to Indiana and bring beer, I'll do it for free.

 

Heck if you come to Ohio I will save you some gas money!!! Tom is too young to drink in our state!!

 

Alright Scott, let's meet at your place for the install!

 

Thats what im talking about Tom, I would do the same for someone in the mustang brotherhood. I would do it myself but im a little leary with the springs but i would like to be there when it was being done and learn how to do it. There are no better people that i find then fellow enthusiests. Too bad Indiana is just a little too far but thanks for the offer all the same.lol.

 

Its not a hard job at all, I did the FRPP suspension in my driveway on 4 jackstands with hand tools for the most part (I had to borrow a spring compressor from Advance Auto and I did have an impact wrench to take the tediousness out of running down the spring compressor).

And here are the torque specs when you do get around to doing the job.
