    Anyone recommend a reputable shop that can install my bilstein 5100s with toytec/eibach springs w/ driver side spacer (for the taco lean). I bought em used off a member here w/ 30K and it would be suitable til I put some money aside for a 3 inch lift all around from Toytec.

    Would prefer if the shop could knock out the alignment as well.

    Thanks in advance!

    I'll give toy auto a shot since it's not too far of drive. I've already emailed then explaining what I have, so hopefully they get back to me Monday and I can get it done Wednesday. Can't wait to level this one out!

    It might be worth looking at getting some space and opening one up in South City or Daly City. Might be pretty popular.

    Pit Row is a DIY shop. You call ahead to reserve a lift(or do it online) and then show up, use their tools and get dirty doing the work yourself.

    I'd keep your appointment w/ Brian @ Toy Auto Clinic if you have one. r, call Don at Artisan Motors. Both Shops are run by experienced Toyota Master Diagnostic Technicians.

    Anderson, thanks for recommending my Toy Auto Clinic, real good folks over there. Chris and Brian took care of everything. Well here's the end result. From a quick glance it looks like the fronts higher than the back. Oh well gives me a reason to get a AAL and match the 5100s all the way around LOL.
