The rest I am fine using std spec.) Present it to them when making the appointment. If they balk say good-beye! and find a better shop.


If no recent suspension work was done, be ready to swap some control arms, ball-joints or the inner bushings in the lower CA.
I don't know the status of the suspension components as I've only had this thing for a year and it's never seen a hoist so it will be a voyage of discovery tomorrow.

This shop regularly deals with multi link lifted suspensions and big wheels/tires and the local dealerships send all that kind of work to them. Plus the owner is my neighbor so I'd like to support local business.

I'll pop into the e70 forum and see what I can dig up
