Hey guys, i'm not sure if this is allowed or not, but I run a small business outta my place doing work on Euros. I'm obviously charging less than any local stealership or indy, and we can hang out and bullshit at the same time. Here is my CL ad and my website in case anyone needs anything done.

Thanks guys. How's the suspension coming along InSepsis? I just finished doing some upper/lower control arms myself on a 740iL...good times.

The control arms are done... they were a pain in the ass to remove, but once I did that the new ones were breze to put on...


My coilovers get here in a few weeks so my suspension should be finally complete...

Do your guys have to put the car back on it's wheels before torqueing everything down? That's become a known problem for the 7's where if everythting is tightened into place w/ the suspension fully extended that the bushings wear prematurely. Removing the arms w/ the pickle fork (that I had to dremel to length) and tighten the suspension compressed was the biggest bitch for me.

I keep the wheel off and use a jack to lift the suspension compressing it to approximate ride height. Then torque everything down. ;)

I may have to come wrench on some cars with you, Id love to learn BMWs, Audis, and such.

My garage is open to anyone, so whenever you're in Meridian near Blackcat and Ustick, let me know. 206-679-7149. In the meantime, I do need to find someone who can weld aluminum...I broke both radiator mounts on my bike from doing wheelies and coming down to hard. They're little tabs that just need to be tacked back on, but i've heard welding aluminum is a bitch.

I use my framing hammer and beat it within an inch of it's life, works like a champ and relieves stress!
