    Howdy all, I live in Gallup and I don't trust the shops around here. I am hoping yall could help me find a good shop to complete some work in either Albuquerque or Farmington. I have a completely stock '08 access cab 4x with 120K. I would like have someone install Firestone airbags, lube up my Zerts and replace ALL fluids and spark plugs. Can yall point me in the right direction? Thanks.

    Rupp Brake & Alignment in Farmington always treated me well when I lived there, also we had our fleet vehicles serviced there. Another option would be Finch Lube, not sure if they would do a airbag install but they'd be able to do the fluid and spark plug change.

    Big zero again, apparently game and fish doesn’t like my money. 6th year they’ve sent it back in a row

    I'm gonna try to do the ECGS swap myself this weekend. Job does make me nervous though. Not looking forward to wrestling with the CV or bearing.

    Easy enough, just follow this video. I’d make sure I had the ECGS removal tool for sure

    Yeah I've watched several videos and read several threads and guides. The process itself sounds straightforward, just not easy. I've got all the tools I need except a vice (in case I need to file down the removal tool) and some tie rod pullers.

    Yeah i was watching videos too and trying to learn enough to do it myself but I’ve read a few threads on here with guys who got hung up halfway through and that kind of turned me off from attempting it
