Good mechanics in ATL or metro area

Picking up a lift and wondering if TW has any recommended mechanics in the metra ATL area for the install? Never put a lift on a vehicle before in GA so have no ideas where to go.

 

What are of Atlanta are you in? I'm in Powder Springs (west cobb) and have a guy that didn't mine for half the cost as everyone else.

 

@msting22 In buckhead area, can you PM me the shop name ? I'll give them a call

 

Cool, I work in buckhead.

Here's a link to the shop. The owner is a really nice guy and they do great work of a really good price. http://www.lostmountainexpresslube.com

I can't remember the owners name for the life of me right now but tell him the guy with the Sand Tacoma sent you.

 

@msting22 Thanks! I will check them out. Much appreciated!

 

No problem man. They are good people and do really good work for great price. The owner is a jeep guy so you have to give him a hard time of you go see him.

 

I would take my Tacoma to Greer Automotive in Woodstock. They specialize in Tacomas and 4 Runners but now I take all my vehicles there. Prices are reasonable, and they do good work. Guy who runs the shop is named Patrick.

Have any of yall hard of good shops for lift installs that are closer to the Buford area?

 

No personal experience with them, but AllSouth Autosports is in Buford and apparently puts out a ton of work.

 

I'll second AllSouth. My buddy goes there all the damn time since it's right next to his work

 

Baker Automotive off-road in Alpharetta

There isn’t anything they can’t do, and very reasonable

 

ACC Garage (was called ACC Toyota)
- Small shop that can do it all from builds to regular maintenance.

Toyota South
- Toyota Service/Parts/Collision are run by a straight up awesome guy. He is a friend of mine and a wheelin’ buddy.

*Mention that you heard about them from TW or ih8mud.

 

ACC is great, but same day appointments for installs ain’t gonna happen either with how busy they are. But that’s what happens when they do good work. I’ve taken my FJ60 and GX470, and they are crazy knowledgeable

 

It’s true, their business model was focused on builds, and getting same day service would have been impossible. However, as business’ evolve so do there practices and client base.

Currently, ACC is ramping up and adding a couple more master techs to the crew. The additions in personnel will enable them to take on the day to day work.
If you have experienced not being able to get in with them, I strongly urge you to give them a shot at your business.

Even if you have your own mechanic, your missing out if you don’t go check these guys out. It’s the closest place around here I know of, with people as passionate about these trucks as I am.

This is the American Dream, to own ones business and provide services A to B.
The shift is happening soon, and I wanted to invite all Toyota fans to come out and meet the crew up at ACC.
I am working on putting some dates together for some BBQ and Yota talk.

I support them, I wheel with them, and would help anyone of those guys out anyway I could.

If you have seen my FJ40, they are responsible for that build...which is super sick!

 

@Built2Ride @absolutgt thanks for the recommendations. I checked out ACC and I’ll be going with them once I have the funds to add a 3” LT Total Choas suspension.

 

Very cool. I am about to order my armor and put it on up there. Been waiting to make this happen. I too will be adding suspension to my rig, it’s about to get serious.

 

I have decided agains the LT suspension for the time being. Im going with the Icon complete lift. I realized that Im not going to be getting into the much off road, at least not intentionally lol. I might upgrade to a LT later but for now I'm going to put a complete lift with 6" fender extensions, extended axles and Falken AT3/W 285x75x17.

 

Can y'all point me in the direction of a good snorkel thread? Im not sold on it but just want to do some research on the subject.

 

Let me look. I am also in the market for a snorkel. Until then here are some pics of some long travel for ya.

 

ACC Garage
been there once, and they treated my wife, child, and myself like family. I'll be a fan for life.
