Reputable garage in Aberdeen
Hi all,
I'm thinking of getting lowering springs and getting the rear lowered via torsion bars. I've seen loads of guides and it looks fairly straight forward, but the thing looks seized.
Anyone live in Aberdeen or near who can recommend a garage to fit my springs (not got spring compressors) and lower my rear?

I use a garage out past Alford, its about 40-50 mins drive from Aberdeen so maybe not ideal for you...

Thanks lads. Both are possibilities. Give them a call and see what quotes they can come up with.

What a lad, I'll make sure you get something for it though. I can always come to you. I won't be going with this op for another month or so.
I'm going to call the garage up tomorrow though, to see if they are open on the weekends.
