H&R Spacer Install Help (MD)
Hey Guys,
Anyone in the Baltimore, MD area installed the stud replacement spacers before? Not the bolt-on kind (version 2), but the replacement/longer bolts (version 1). Looking for a little help from someone local maybe, as I have no garage or tools LOL. So if you've done this before, and are close to Baltimore give me a shout. Thanks

I had the same issue. Steve (mustang) helped me out as I didn't have the tools.

We might be able to do it. If you're not lowered, you'd have to angle in, but a stock Z scrapes even on an angle, so I dunno how yours would work out.

My garage is perfectly insulated. Once I close the door no one will hear his screams.

LOL.
While I think the job itself is straight forward, I'm reluctant to remove my brake calipers myself. Having a local tuning shop take care of it for me . M4A1, your hair got longer and more retro. Must be the mustang purchase.

It's SUPER DUPER easy. All you need is a 22mm wrench for the front and a 19mm wrench for the rear. Use a metal clothes hanger if you want to hang the caliper or stack two paint cans on top of each other if you want to set it down off to the side.

Darren, if you want, you can try to get into my driveway after one of the Fairfax meets (next weekend).
