Best offroad shop in West Texas/North Eastern New Mexico?

Hey guys,

Well I finally ordered my lift, and now I'm just trying to find someone to install it for me. I really wish I could do it myself, but I'm in an apartment for the summer and don't have any access to tools or a good work space for that matter. I'm living in Carlsbad, NM right now. Do you guys know of any good shops in this area? I'd be willing to drive about 3 hours in any direction to get to a good shop.

Thanks!

 

Come to Houston, we will get it installed in a few hours.. just bring beer.

 

That may be an option. I'd definitely drive the 8 hours down there if I knew I could get it installed by some fellow TW members. Don't worry, If I'm headed down that way, a few cases of beer would be a necessity.

 

What kind of lift did you go with ?

 

I decided to bite the bullet the first time and go with a full King setup. Up front I'll have king 2.5 RR coilovers and Total Chaos UCAs. In the rear I'll have Dakars and 2.5 RR Kings. Being out here in the desert is what convinced me to go mid travel. I drive on a lot of desert roads and the stock OR suspension just wasn't cutting it anymore.

 

Nice setup, you will love it.

 

You will love it for sure.
Just make sure you bring a case just for me. And another case for the guys lol

 

Carlsbad huh I'm south of you by about 80 miles <.<

 

Are you down in Pecos? I'd be really grateful if you could help me out with the install or at least direct me to a good local shop. Either way, we definitely should get a group of West Texas guys for a wheeling trip.

 

Big Bend FTW!! Had a lot of fun out there last year.

 

Cannon Tire in Ruidoso

 

Have you had them do any suspension work for you? This suspension set me back a decent amount, and since I won't be able to do the install myself, I want to make sure that whoever I take it to knows what they're doing.

 

Bring beer and I have tools. I'm sure the Houston guys are the same. If you come stop in Marfa or Alpine for some Big Bend Brewing choices.

 

It won't take but a 2 hours! Lol bring it, it'll give me something to do

 

I know the Owner of Cannon Tire Very Well and Used to work there when I was a Firefighter in Ruidoso. They have a TOP OF THE LINE CREW. If you want the phone number so you can call and talk with Shawn just Yell.

 

Well thanks for all the responses. I'm still waiting for all the stuff to get shipped out here. I'll let you guys know when it all comes in. Then my next free weekend after that I'll either head out to Arlington or Houston with plenty of beer on hand.

If that doesn't work out, then I'll be headed up to Cannon Tire to get it installed.

 

Nice!! If you're really serious, shoot us a post in the Houston bs

 

Did you call Shawn at Cannon Tire???

 

I haven't yet. I'll give him a call here when all of my parts come in though. Hopefully they'll be here by the end of this week.

 

the number is 575-378-0078.
