    Yes I have the necessary tooling (shop press, pullers, etc). I have done pressed wheel bearings. Not my expertise though. I can, but I'd recommend removing the knuckles from the truck, and taking them to a good brake or mechanic shop for pressing.

    Couldn’t be more happier with Dave’s work today. I was uneasy about doing the ECGS Bushing and spark plugs myself. Dave got it all done on top of changing the fluids for front and rear diff and transfer case.

    This is the second time I’ve been to Dave and it’s been awesome work. Highly recommend if you need any work done!

    Superdave installed the ECGS clamshell bushing on my Tacoma today for a reasonable price. No problems whatsoever. He also does a great job at explaining what he is doing and notifying me of any possible problems that he notices. I will definitely go to Superdave for any aftermarket installations or out-of-warranty issues in the future.
    I HIGHLY recommend that people acquire the services of Superdave for their Toyotas. He is probably more reliable (and definitely more affordable) than any auto shop or dealer out there.
    Thanks Superdave! I will be in touch with you in the near future about add-a-leafs, lifting my front struts, and possibly replacing my uca's.

    I had Dave do my ECGS bushing install yesterday.I highly recommend him for this. He did a great job and is meticulous about his work. His pricing is more than reasonable. I drove up from San Diego to get it done. No more vibration!!

    I was there on the same day as you. I left about 1 pm. Dave said he had someone coming in at 2 pm. That must have been you!

    Another happy customer here. Have a long trip coming up and wanted to get everything on the truck looked at and also learn to work on it myself. Dave was more than helpful and taught me a lot. we got all the fluids changed and all the stuff he would recommend me to do soon. Amazing service all around, and honestly, you CANNOT beat his prices. HIGHLY RECOMMEND him for any service you need! Thanks Dave!
