Who installs lowering link in phoenix area?

I know it can be a DIY project but i'd rather have a shop do it that's done it before. Also are all lowering links created equal?
Anyone in the Phoenix area?

thx in advance

Maybe look to your indy. Aside from having to adjust it multiple times, it is one of the easiest mods I have ever done. Just make sure that every time that the links are adjusted, that you raise the car up first then lower it down with the button inside. I believe the E is even easier as there is only one link for the rear (as I understand).

are all brands pretty much the same quality?
i hear good things about the ghost links however they are almost double in price compared to some of the others.

I live in Chandler but haven't had any shops do work to mine yet. I do know a Mercedes tech though, so if you want me to ask around, let me know.

I need to get my calipers painted to a different color! I was also wondering of a good shop that is reasonably priced. I was thinking vivid racing. Whatever you do do not go to uniq motorsports! They are horrible.....

FYI, I've heard the same thing about Vivid, so be careful.

what lowering links did you end up getting? easy install from what i read on here. Looking to get a set for my e55 . Too lazy to try and remove the renntech elm from my 4matic and swap into the e55.

I wouldn't take any of my vehicles to vivid or that uniq or whatever.

As nice as Vivid racing is now, they weren't the greatest when they started out. There was crap about them back in the day that they would charge for CAM's and installation in some Subaru's, yet not change out anything but still charge the customer.

I like Dyno-Comp, but they are a bit pricey, but you get what you pay for. There are always cars from Dubai and other countries around the world that ship their cars to Dyno-Comp just to have work done.

Let me know on who you decide to go with. I've had my Lowering module installed at dyno comp, and couldn't be happier with them. I've taken it out now due to airmatic problems with some sensors.

ghost links.

also GOODSPEED is a solid place in Scottsdale for tuning needs and such.
I highly recommend CAMARENA tire in mesa for alignments-lowering etc.

Yeah, I've spent a lot of time on the phone with Goodspeed, those guys impressed me enough to be my shop of choice when I get work done. Plus, they're right next to Scottsdale Gun Club so I can go blast some rounds while they work on my car hahaha

Please let me know how the results are?? Looks like i'm going the LL route instead of renntech module. On youtube, fronts dont look too hard to do, just the rear a bit tough.

I went with www.adjustableairride.com . They are quality pieces, stainless threads, billet ends. Install was cake. front literally took me 5 minutes or less, rear took about 15, only because it's hard to reach and I'm not exactly a small feller.
