Rear Suspension Overhaul

trimani · 7th February 2015, 11:48

As per heading, I am looking to have the Rear Suspension overhauled.
Fit new Shocks, Springs, Upper and Lower Arms, Sub frame, and uprated Ant-Roll Bar. so in other words everything.
I have been gathering all the parts needed, including new nuts and bolts for everything.
The sub frame is not new, but cleaned & de-rusted.

Now the million dollar question. I cannot undertake this work myself, so have to farm it out. How long would this amount of work take (approx).

Is there anyone in the Dorset area who would be interested in taking it on. I seem to be miles away from the recognised experts on the forum, and I don't have a local garage who I would trust with the work.

It's a shame you're not closer, as the garage I use for all my work are doing similar on my ZT-T shortly.
They've quoted about 8 hours, give or take.

Also, on a side note, it's great to see someone putting so much TLC into their car.
