    Apologies for the newbie question - I did attempt searches first.
    New truck (TRD Sport, LB) arrives Tuesday and I'm considering mild suspension work, wheels/tires.
    I am not mechanically equipped/inclined/interested but would like to find a shop that this community knows and trusts.
    Perhaps 4WDParts in Burlington?
    Appreciate any input!

    I’ve bought tires from the queenston guy on centennial if it’s the same place since there are 2 locations and apparently not related, he was good.
    I’ve heard good and bad from 4W parts, but heard great things about a place in St. Thomas called Off road Addiction, bit of a drive down from GTHA but maybe worth it.

    I've had issues with them...

    If they don't have the parts in stock, they will outright lie to your face as to when you will get them, or if / when they will have them on the way, after you paid for them.

    Was given wrong suspension advice by them (told I needed tophats for my 8112 shocks, lol they hadn't even looked at the picture of the shocks or they would have felt silly trying to get me to buy them).

    Was given the wrong parts from what I ordered....

    I've heard and read a few horror stories about mech work done there...

    google reviews has similar stories about the Burlington shop and 4wp in general...

    Thanks Daks...I have a tonneau on order with them now (a week late at the moment).
    Do you do all of your own work or is there another shop you use?

    i guess we all have different experiences.

    only mech work i had is getting my first set of tires (KO2s) mounted to my current rims. when i got my OEM Dakar springs, everything except 1 set of bushings was what i asked for. and the Bushings i was given by mistake, they simply swapped out for a new pair without hassle the same day.
    other than that - Dakars showed up within 2 days of me asking for them.

    I second Offroad Addiction. I got my OME suspension from them. Guys were great, very experienced, they do tons of rigs, have not had any issues with their install.

    Anyone have any referrals for a shop that’s familiar with our trucks and know how to do a proper alignment, especially our caster lol.
