St.Louis/St.Charles -Best place to get Springs installed? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I'm looking to get the Eibach lowering kit installed by a reputable shop. I went to Pur and they wanted almost $900 including the springs for the entire job. That seemed like it was WAY too high for a $200 part + labor + alignment.

Anyone have any luck getting the Eibach pro kit installed locally? If so, how much did it cost? I'm thinking of just buying the springs and paying for the install.

Thanks for the info, I'll give him a ring and see what we can work out. I pulled the trigger on these last night from Jegs, the ship time said the 29th when I ordered them...today it shows April 2nd. :/

Where in St Louis are you located? I recently did my springs in the garage with hand tools. More than willing to give you a helping hand to save some money. Lets try to actually make this a true camaro5 family!

I live in O'fallon off Bryan Road, used to live in Webster Groves. It will be over 1.5 weeks before I get my springs from Jegs. I'm all about saving some money though, especially after going to the pump today. :(

On a side note, I recently moved to O'fallon and I gotta admit I'm pretty bored. There is no cruise strip, no Home Depot on Lindbergh to check out some rides on Friday/Saturday...nothing. Just cookie cutter houses and every fast food chain you can name all within a block of each other.

And it seems EVERYONE out here has a Mustang or a Challenger...

SSTG · 03-22-2012, 07:37 AM

I'm in Ofallon and I don't.
But your right, there isn't any hangouts sadly.

I was debatin on lowering my car too and also contacted Pur performance, they quoted me 550 in labor(installation and allignment) and 500 dollars for the Eibach Springs (the same ones that are like 250 on their website). I was kinda thrown off by their numbers so I didnt even reply lol. I am not sure if they misunderstood what I was askin for or if they are just insane. Since that though I've held off on getting some springs

Chillomatic · 03-23-2012, 07:06 AM

Ocx · 03-23-2012, 09:41 AM

The only "cheap" thing they seemed to have their was the Stage 5 Camaro with 5,xxx miles on it...they wanted $40,000 for it.
