GB/GI GT Spec Trailing Arms

[Lewis7789]

I just paid $142 for mine for all four wheels to my specs from Conrads here in Ohio. But could be worse, my friend paid about $300 for his Speed3...

As far as alignments go, there are the only thing that gets done to my car that I can't do myself so I only trust one place to do it.

Good lord, pay 110.00 for a 1 yr or 140.00 for 3yr one from NTB and get it aligned every so often for free or buy the 149.00 lifetime one from Firestone. It is never worth paying 80.00 every time, even 60 every time is too much. Alignments are not something you usually need unless changing parts or from offroading frequently in a truck (which is why I buy multiple use alignments) or just every so often form the roads being what they are but is something that is good to do for free after the initial cost to make sure things are still good to keep the tires happy.

Yeah once im done im gonna get me a lifetime allignment also it just makes since that way why pay everytime if you dont have to. IIRC brake check had a lkfetime for like 100 or something ill have to double check but either way its in my future where ever i go.

Well I don't know about you guys, but here in Ohio 90% of the shops that do alignments won't even bother with a lowered car and especially with specs other than OEM. Even if it's just on springs. And screw NTB, they've messed up so many of my friends cars.

If I could get a lifetime alignment for my P5 I would, as long as it would be done right the first time and everytime after that. If you can get an alignment for $60 and they do a half-ass job, it's not really worth it to me. Not bashing anyone or anything, just saying a good alignment is really hard to find around here.

Ive only had to get an alignment once in my old accord ive never had a car long enough to get a second one, and the only reason i did one on my mazda originally was because i added my rims, struts, swaybar, and endlinks luckily for me i was in school at the time and i did them for free as part of a grade but once im done with my build im gonna need an alignment, but the alignment i got in my accord was on point and i got it at one of those mechanic/tire shops never had an issue ive been going to them when theres something i cant do on my own where its lack of time, tools, or knowledge but they are fair and do it right the first time, which is why i keep going there. plus my cars not slammed or anything so it makes it on the lift.

i had my car aligned after changing the trailing arms. IMO anytime you change anything to do with your suspension things can move.

Thats what i figured... just wanted some others opinions.

Thanks for the input guys.

Keeping it aligned is cheaper than buying tires because you didn't align it..............and if you go in telling them how you want it aligned, knowing factory specs and any change you want & get the printout when they think they are done and review it before leaving, you won't get screwed. That can happen anywhere and everywhere. Tell them you want the steering wheel ******* straight and aligned to these specs, period. Same thing you do with a lifted truck, lowered doesn't matter...except getting on the rack maybe. Knowing nothing about what you are asking someone else to do to your car and paying them to only end up with what they think you meant is a surefire way to be unsatisfied, poorer & pissed off every time.

No problem and thanks for having them made so whats next on the list i already have a cage so im out of that one but interested in whats next though

 

[spicyprotevo]

Received mine yesterday, glad to finally have these. Definitely interested in some more GT Spec products, any of them would be nice.

 

[StevO_ProtO-5]

Any interest in a GT Spec lower tie bar? The welds on the tie bar I have from KMR look like someone needed more practice.

 

[RicoP5]

Strut bar or tie bar I'm In since I missed this one

 

[spicyprotevo]

For me, I'll be in ANY GB. Prefer lower tie next. Since I feel like that will offer the most stiffening.

Sorry Cres said he wasent shipping to Canada he said something about Bikingpro5 living there and he would just take them so hes not gonna deal with it...lol

[i12drivemyMP5]

Hope it wasn't that last "extra" set they sold............

 

[spicyprotevo]

Just in case anyone is wondering, the torque specs are 46 - 77 ft-lbs for the front, and 87 - 126 for the rear. 14 - 18 on the brake cable bracket.

On a side note, can we start a lower tie brace GI/GB thread?
