lowering by Renault dealer

[pritchardR27]

my local ren are very good and helpful usually do you recon they will fit my h&rs? as i want it all done properly ie proper toque on the bolts etc ;/

 

[RalphyBMW]

They will do them quite happily I would expect - however most indy places should be doing them to the correct torque, etc.

 

[BenW]

I'd rather go to a renault specialist, someone like ktec/mark fish

 

[RalphyBMW]

Given that you are in S Wales, have you tried AP Developments in Swansea?

 

[Arran]

They'll charge you the earth if they will actually do it too! Specialist would be abetter bet I'd say.

 

[pritchardR27]

closest is ap development iv asked and they will do it but if they get apre time id like to take it to k-tec but the 3hour jurney for springs to be fitted is a long way, any more suggestions?

Not sure how South you are in Wales, will still be a trip but i'm sure Fred at BTM will more than happily do it for a fair price. http://btmperformance.com/

[pritchardR27]

He's a one man show, many RenaultSports mainly clios from 172's to 197's, Fitted my KW V1's and weighed my car after to make sure it was set up perfectly etc. A few people on here would happily recommend him too. Can't fault him myself, taking mine to get a service with him in the New Year. You can wait around and watch him doing it, McDonalds round the corner if your hungry haha.

[Troopy]

Cool, glad I could be of assistance! Just searched the Forum and there's a fair few posts on here mentioning him if you fancy a read

 

[pritchardR27]

I did the rear end myself and got Renault main dealer to do the front. They charged me £107 and took them 4.5 hours but quoted me 1.5 hours. I thought it was well worth the price as the sub frame has to be lowered out to get the shocks out unless you want to split ball joints etc.

 

[pritchardR27]

got any piks mate? have you got h&rs?

 

[ken182]

I will post some tomorrow. They're eibach. Only 25mm lower but it's enough to make a subtle difference.
