Any garage recommendations for lowering in and around London?
Already got in contact with Kris B but yet to hear back from him. Looking to get it done before the 4th April due to travelling arrangements. Any recommendations welcome!

Thanks

Addaz on here has offered to do mine but he lives in Suffolk, same distance from me really depending on how far in London you are.

Suffolk is a bit of way to go but thanks for letting me know never the less.
Did you get it done through Kris in the end? If so how long did it take out of interest, only ask because of the time scale I have.

Thanks for the offer Addaz, I may take you up on the offer depends on how much time I've got with work and all that malarky, very much appreciated though!

Yep - he said it would take around 3 hours for fitting springs and lowering torsion bar, but he had it done in a little over 2 hours

Where abouts in London are you? I might be able to give you a hand but I've never attempted to adjust the torsion bars. I'm a qualified light commercial mechanic by trade. Would you have somewhere to do it?

Thanks for the offer Skater but just in the process of sorting it out with Addaz now as none of my local garages wanted to do it or didn't have clue about doing it the right way, appreciate the offer none the less.
