    Anyone have some good recommendations for shops in the greater boston/north shore/southern new hampshire area to get suspension work done? looking to keep it decently simple but want to upgrade suspension to something better than a stock SR5 before i break something offroad. lacking the skills/tools/space to do it myself. Have done some google searching but wondering if anyone has had a good experience with a shop they would recommend. Thanks in advance

    Main Line Overland would be worth the drive in NH.

    I love my new truck but miss my Tacoma
    Do some research here on TW. Shops usually want to just install spacer lifts. Places like headstrong or wheelers off-road are some of the best to deal with buying whatever you want.

    thanks for the help guys. going to check out main line in nh but not totally ruling out the DIY route, just going to be a big learning experience if i end up going that way but i guess we all gotta start somewhere. @Unchained 5150 that is why i am very hesitant to take anywhere that does not come with some good first hand reviews, not worried about paying for a good product but i can only imagine some of the bullshit some of the shops will try to pull to make it as pricey as possible

    If you have the time and access to the tools it's pretty straight forward. If you have never worked on a vehicle before, take before photos, organize the bolts you remove with plastic bags or containers, and most of all, breathe and think.
