afterhours shops wanted????????

Hey, anyone know of a shop thats stays open pass 5pm-6pm besides Defcon, i know there open till 10pm but i can't seem to get ahold of em today and its kinda of far for me.

I'm looking to install my rsx sway bar and i stripped the alan key hole when i tried to put it on myself so i need a performance shop.

thanks in advance.

Hey loungey, if you have vise grips and 30 minutes you can do this yourself. Just rip the endlink arm off the ball joint (exposing the round ball) then use the visegrips to grip tight on the ball - wedge the grip handle against a piece of the control arm. That way when you turn the wrench on the nut on the other side, it won't rotate. However if you stripped the nut, not the allen key, you're hosed, lol.

How do i know this? I've stripped the allen key hole in 3 endlinks now. I use Grey's kit. Much easier.

ya, its a bitch to take off...they (defcon) actually took off both endlinks of the car and then took the sway bar off the endlinks, i guess it was rusted that badly, but anyways Defcon guys are cool, and it only cost me 40 to install...the car feels alot stiffer in the rear, defintily worth the upgrade, you will feel the difference.

the revo ss is VERY EASY TO INSTALL, i installed it on my lunch hour...just try it yourself first. the sway bar is a different story...easy to install but hard to get bolts loose

ive never really done anything to my car by myself. im scared that i won't be able to take out or put the center console together if i install the revo myself. is there a diy for it. are you willing to install it for me? im willing to give some cash and at the same time i want to learn how to do it.

Loungey, the SS is simple. Just a few bolts/screws and voila.

yo, wouldnt feel right taking your money for something this easy...the centre console is really easy to take off...look in the DIY section on this site for that then follow the revo instructions to install. its so much more satisfying installing things yourself, just research and try it nothing to lose and everything to gain..hehe.
