Hammer Hangers in Houston

Any recommendations for Houston shop to do Archive Hammer Hangers? On SE side but I’l go where I gotta go.

Most likely could handle it myself, I just flat out don’t want to spend 4hrs of my weekend grinding and drilling.

 

Guess you're doing it. Hadn't heard of that product so I had to look it up and now I'm interested in getting them.

 

yeh, kinda mentally prepared to do it at this point. Waiting on Deaver stage 2 to get here. Gonna pull my Dakar’s with new bushings and have those for sale around that time.

 

How many miles on the rear?

 

Have you checked your local threads, I'm sure someone near you does installs or you could host a mod day. Get some help doing the work and meet some locals.

 

probably 50k. Also OME BP51 is coming off and gonna switch to Fox 2.5 elite….I think.

 

How do I check local threads? Can’t really do a mod day cuz my schedule is such a mess.

 

I may be interested in your used Dakars if priced alright. Mine have close to 140k on them.

That's one, probably a good place to ask and introduce yourself.

Top left where it says forums, scroll down to Texas and start searching

 

That thread is pretty ded. DED = dead

 

I tried, good luck


It's not a bad install if you have to diy

 

I’d probably be about $300 including the new Energy Suspension bushings Iv got still in the box.

Been quoted 2 weeks on the Deaver arrival but hoping to have by this next weekend

 

Ahh…very good, il have to check through there. Thanks

 

Duggys garage (probably my last choice of the three)
TEQ auto solutions
Brave motor sports

if you’re going all out with hammer hangers you should just probably install them yourself JIC you come into a failure in the future, you’ll have a better understanding of the situation. It shouldn’t be that hard of an install. I’m gonna guess these shops gonna charge your about $1500 to install hangers and leaf springs

 

yeh, $1500 would be a deal breaker for me…lol.

I can totally do it, just hate to spend the whole weekend under there. Looks like I can expect 8-10hrs for total job.

I will call around for a quote tho. If I can drop off in the morning and pick up at end of day, that’s worth something.

 

Dakars are off and Deavers are on. Can’t say the difference is significant. Maybe slightly softer in the back.

if interested, lemme know. They do have new energy suspension bushings. Maybe 1000 miles on that.

 

Pretty straight forward. Gonna need about a 18 pack and a buddy get you a rivet gun and a good size air compressor. I used a 5 gallon pancake compressor. Barely got it to work.

 

Ya, did it sometime in December
