Who installed your SFC's heavy chevy?? I live somewhat close to you and Im looking for someone to install them for me. I really dont have any welding experience so Im looking for someone to weld them in (professionally) for me. Later..

You can jack the car from the SFCs. In fact, I jacked the entire FRONT end of the car on both SFCs alone, and no problems. Checked all the welds and everything looked good. I got them installed at Spohn Performance.

oh crap! i didn't notice you live in franklin lakes. i used to live in oakland, and still visit there once in a while. that's pretty cool, maybe i'll see you cruising around.

i got them istalled at a body shop in oakland. the name of the place is Walker tech. i know the guy who owns the place and my friend works there. he charged me $200. the number is 201-337-8669. tell him that Dan "the man" sent you. it took him 2 days to do it.

I'm thinking about getting SFCs on my car pretty soon. I just put my Spohn LCAs on today. Can't wait to go check them out.
heavy_chevy~ Thanks for the info. Im gonna do some more research on who installes sfc's in NNJ and then make a choice from there. $200 seems somewhat high but Im the FIRST person to say that you cant put a price on quality work. Do you know if Walker Tech has a drive on lift???
Later..

soooo...????.....for the rest of us still pondering wether to purschase them, how do they ride?...feel any difference?...i'm looking for night/day difference.......
sorry i can't tell you if it rides better because i can not legally drive my car untill i get my exhaust put on.
walker tech does not have a drive on lift. what he did was jack the car up in the front and put jackstands under the A arms. in the back he put jackstands under the axle. that loads the suspension and creats the same affect as a drive on lift. i diffinatly recommend him. he did a real nice job. when i drove(i live right by his shop so i was able to drive it with out any police bothering me) the car home, it went perfectly staight. it might not cost $200 for you because now he now exactly what to do. he has done sfc before, but he never did them on a 3rd gen or with the spohn ones. good luck
