Megan Racing Coilover sleeves on Stock shocks

I'm thinking about getting Megan racing coilover sleeves on stock shocks for just this summer and winter and looking to get some good shocks or full damper kit next summer, mainly because of budget.

Has anyone done this setup or similar? Is so what do you guys recommend, a good drop be, so that i don't kill my stock shocks anytime soon, to last atleast 1yr?

Also, i'm looking to get them installed cheap does anyone know a shop that will do it for less than $100 in Toronto or GTA.

Thanks everyone in advance for your post.

For shops, either look at our affiliates page or look around in the yellow pages.

Thanks

Most shops are at least 150 - 200. Give some of the affiliate shops a call and get a quote. Other than that, please check the rules about this forum

Thanks.

i feel your pain. the budget is a painful thing, but honestly, save and get a set of omnipowers... they are key. that way you can just bust out the stock shocks/springs for the winter... the install is SUPER easy forcoilovers. it's just out and in... to take out coilovers it's like 3 bolts. literally. well plus lug nuts.
that is waht i did.
orrr... just rent a spring compressor from canadian tire or buy one for $25 from princess auto... it's a really simple thing to do.
and then buy my front end.
