    Hey Austin Taco Crew... Anyone have good bad or ugly experiences with truck upgrade shops...

    I'm wanting to put a 2" or 3" lift on my 2017 TRD PRO to fit 33" tires on it, as well as stiffen up the rear (sucker is softer than a baby's bottom IMHO)...
    Thinking an AAL and a Leveling Kit to retain my TRD Pro Suspension...

    If anyone else on here has a similar setup I'd love to meet up and buy you a beer to check out and oooogle at your truck.

    Anyway... I have trust issues and I find it hard to go into any shop and not feel like the guy behind the counter is giving me a sales line of shit.
    Who have you all had do such work and who do you trust... I'm by no means a truck nerd mechanically inclined to do such work myself (also no time)
    I really don't trust anyone who has an incentive-caused bias, I walk into 4 Wheel Parts and naturally ALL NEW SUSPENSION... $3000K is what is needed... which is BS.

    Thanks community for any advice you folks can offer... :)
