Spring install, SoCal.
Can anyone recommend a reputable shop to install H&R springs and alignment.
I am leaning towards TAG Motorsports in Vista, CA, but that is a 140 mile drive from where I live.
Any shops in Riverside County or LA area maybe?

I know a few guys have had luck with Need For Speed Motorsports in Glendale (about 90 miles from you) in getting their spring/wheels combos done
I would've gone there had I needed springs installed but I lucked out and was happy with the ride height

714 Tires: good prices and speedy service. May be closer to you since they're north of Westminster/HB.

No problem, easiest would be to give them a call for an estimate. If they are relatively familiar with the work and reputable they shouldn't hesitate to throw a quote your way.

714Tire first quoted me at $280 with alignment. They later called me to say it was a misquote because the rear springs required the whole suspension to come out.
Said it would be a 6 hour job. Does this sound right?

On mine, I only had to remove one bolt, the one that holds the rear control arm. Remove the bolt, drop the arm low enough to remove spring, reverse it to install. It was the easiest thing to do. Took me, in my driveway about 1.5 hours to do both by myself.
BTW, I was quoted $750 to do all of them.
