    Actually, there was some discussion on the New England BS thread of having a ECGS install day with @tacobell007 and the quoted install cost was very, very reasonable. He's in central MA.

    I mean… it’s a Ford, you don’t care
    the shop that is used belongs to a friend of ours, who has done many of these over the past few years. Levi is a great mechanic and an overall awesome dude. cheap rates too as he runs his own shop out of his home.

    hell yeah! its convenient for all of us local guys. I one time left my truck with Levi for a "little over a week" while I was on vacation. He had my truck fully serviced and called my brother to go pick it up early (two days). It was great. He did plugs, serviced both diffs, changed tranny fluid, oil change, and greased the whole truck, oh and fixed an oil pan gasket leak haha! If only he had an alignment rack:rolleyes:

    @LivinLoud @tacobell007 what's the best way to schedule some time at the shop? Hoping to head over there next weekend (3/24). Thanks!
