    I got Tein Flex Coilovers on my car. And i want to raise my front just a little. It's too low and scrubbing. But i don't have the tool needed. Does anyone one have the tool and a little free time to help me out?

    I lost the wrenches I had, but I bought some from Harbor Freight that work "ok".
    I'd be more than glad to help you out if you can't find someone with the "correct" wrenches. Don't forget that if you change ride height it will affect your alignment.

    Just ordered mine today! You can use mine if you haven't already done so, when they arrive next week!

    Can anyone tell me the best place to get an alignment done! Besides a dealership!

    I'd always read great things about Gran Turismo, so when Porter recommended them, that's where I went. I checked into replacement spanner wrenches and they are $25 a set.

    yep GT is really good. It's funny, cause it sure isn't anything to look at from the outside lol. But they do really good work.
    Scott over at SOG can to allignments too. I am sure he does good work too.

    Just got my alignment done at GT after my Tein Flex install! Rough ride, but, handles better. Can't have both, I guess!
