axle back install - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

abutterman · 03-28-2013, 10:02 AM

Looking for either a cheap shop to install my Greddy SP Elite next weekend or if anyone's got jack stands/tools and would like to help out that would be awesome too (beer and/or money compensation would be provided). I'd do it myself but i don't have jack stands or anything and it would just be a pain trying to lay on my back and do it without proper equipment

Anywhere in Nassau or western Suffolk would be preferred

if you have a few wrenches you can do it in your driveway in a couple minutes - whats cheaper than that??? you can do it without jack stands.

i was thinking about just giving it a go but with my luck i'll end up dropping it while i'm trying to get it in the hangers.

Do it yourself. It's extremely easy. I have never done an exhaust before. I was able to install my axle back and OP/FP myself with no help. All I did was back the car onto some ramps. You can use jack stands too.

I have a friend that lives in Hicksville, I am sure he would do it for a couple bucks.

i've got a jack and stands as well, but i don't trust myself doing it either. so i'd have to see if my buddy that helped me install my axleback would be up for it haha.

haha ok let me know. I have to leave the car at the dealer on Wednesday hopefully just for the day cause the seat heaters don't seem to be doing anything but i anticipate being good for friday early evening or saturday or whatever.
