    I'm new in San Antonio and one of my coilovers is busted. I have another set but I can't move into my house yet so everything like my tools are in storage. Is there anybody who has a garage this weekend or can recommend a shop? If you have a garage and some tools I can be in and out. I'll buy you dinner and a six pack of whatever beer you want.

    I don't need a spring compressor. Worse case scenario I have to spin the collars all the way down to loosen the springs. I'm more worried about the top strut nut. I don't have the specialty tool. It's easy with air, but without it you kind of have to improvise.

    for the pm, I'm on my phone and I'll get to them when I get home. Once again I just need a space and some tools (stands, 21/22mm, 19mm, 17mm). I'll be extremely grateful and like I said I'll throw some money or buy you food and beer.

    Normally I wouldn't ask like this but unfortunately I'm pressed for time. I get my stuff delivered next Thursday but I have to leave the Saturday after for work (military wants to send me everywhere) and I want to drive, so I want to get it done this weekend.
