Lowering and Corner Balance shop in Denver?

Any suggestions on a quality shop in Colorado (front range) that can perform a lowering and corner balance with alignment for a reasonable price? Got quoted over $500 from a dealer...Pleeaasseeeeee!!

Thanks, Ben

Hey Ben,

You could call....

3R Automotive-very good but a little on the high side.

Eurosport Ltd in Englewood- They are highly recommended within our region.

AutosportWerks in Broomfield-Seems to have good pricing and one of the cars they set up that I drove seemed to be excellent.

Dart Auto-They can do the corner Balance, but they just started doing them so?

I had 3R do mine last year and it was amazing how balanced it felt.

Eurosport Limited

I worked with Eurosport when I was racing and they are top notch...I would highly recommend them.

If the dealer is willing to take out your torsion bars and reset the height AND align it AND corner balance it that is a good deal. Eurosport and 3R will do a very good job, although we have gotten several jobs from 3R as they did not want to do the work. I do not think any dealers in Denver had scales.We will charge by the hour and get it as good as you want it. If you want everything done and adjusted as good as it can be it will take all day, or 8 hours or $500. Unless you have a free moving suspension joints and adjustable drop links you can only get the corner balance so close. I usually stop when the cross weight is within 49% on a car with stock parts. I can set it up closer on the scales but it could be 2% off the other way once you drive around the block. It is pretty easy to get my race car with heims everywhere and coilovers to within .2% consistently.
