    My ICON Stage 4 suspension (coilovers w/ remote reservoirs, upper control arms, rear shocks w/ remote reservoirs, add-a-leaf) has arrived for my '16 Tacoma, and I need to get this installed. Hoping to find a shop that will be reasonably close to New Westminster, will do a quality job (#1 priority), and at a reasonable cost. Bonus points if they can do the alignment, too.

    I've gotten some quotes, but from places that are rather far, and that's a bit of a problem when the job requires the truck to be out of service for most of the day.

    Any suggestions?

    Far yes but good. Jason at Cruisin offroad.
    Cruisinoffroad.com . Chilliwack is a long way to go.

    I can tell you from personal experience that provided the struts are assembled it pretty easy to do also I didn't need to do the UCAs. Still there are other advantages to having some do it.

    Thanks. That's actually where I've already booked the install appointment. Jason did my sliders a little while back, too.

    Cool so you already know you are in good hands. Nice lift BTW.

    What size tires you planning to run?

    I'm going to stick with the tires I currently have: 265/70/17 BFG KO2. I'm really liking them and don't see myself changing them any time soon. If I do get something else down the line, I'll be aiming for a larger diameter (33's or so), while keeping the width as close to 265 as possible to minimize any chopping that has to be done to the truck. Pizza-cutters, they call em? Just a theory at this point, though. Not any time soon.

    Cool, I went 275/70/17 KO2s and love them so far. Very minor rubbing (which I hope to fix with a second alignment maxing camber). Tire worked very well on the thick Cariboo gumbo I was wheeling in last week.
