   Hi,
   
   i've just brought my springs to have it lowered (50mm) and looking for a garage around the midlands area to do the back, i'm having trouble finding a garage that will actually do it for some reason....so does anybody know of a garage that will adjust the torsion bar, i live in sutton coldfield if that helps...
   
   .....and out of interest why do alot of garages say they cant or wont do it?
   
   thanks...andy

    and to your other question in your first thread, when you get it done, you will see why alot of garges charge stupid prices, or wont do it
    
    and if they do do it, usually they dont do it the proper way either
    
    but if you get the guys in nueaton to do it they will explain it all to you if you wanted as they are doing it, then you know for future lol
