The Bumpsteer mod @ £120.00 + VAT does include a full 4 wheel alignment.

The eibachs cost £135.00 + VAT and £80.00 + VAT to fit

Yeah, I called them up a few days back and they quoted £80 to fit but that didn't include geometry. A further £60 for that.

How does that work then? How could they fit them without?

Cool

Because fitting them gets the alignment set where the manufacturers mounts line up. Optimising the geometry takes Nick a while, because he is a perfectionist, that's why PS is the only place I would use.

I'd rather drive 2 hours passing a well known laser alignment establishment 10 mins from my house on the way.

Oh, and it is worth every penny.

Went up to powerstation 3 weeks ago , had Eibachs fitted, bumpsteer correction, 3 new coils then Dyno tested ( to 276 Classic 94 ). For 650 bucks inc VAT.

Well chuffed with the results and cant reccomend the service highly enough. The prices quoted above are correct re bumpsteer and Eibachs and is definity pennies well spent IMO.

If your unsure about anything just give them a call, real nice bunch of guys.

Watched a guy run straight over with him with front left as he led out in the sun while I was up there, thought he was dead or badly hurt for sure, but he just got up and limped away. One rock hard dog !!

Good to hear nothing bad came of it.
