    Hey Colorado group!

    Can anyone help me out with a recommendation for a trusted person/shop to perform a pre purchase inspection on a 2006 DC? The truck is in the Longmont area.

    The truck has a 2-3 OME inch lift with an ARB bumper and winch. Those are the only significant mods I'm aware of.

    Thanks ashrr! I wouldn't have thought of going to one of the "chain/franchise" shops. Do these guys have some expertise with trucks and/or Toyotas...is that why you suggested them?

    All their shops are individually owned. I'm not sure about all his working, but I was worked with Patrick personally when he worked down here in Littleton (his dad owns one down here) I know he's familiar with builds like this, but not specifically Toyota's. He always helped me out so I'd might be worth giving him a call to at least ask him about it.

    My friend owns a shop in Boulder on 49th and Pearl, just off the Diagnol/Foothills Pkwy.

    They are constantly voted #1 or #2 in the county for auto shops.

    Cosmetic stuff.... best part HomerTaco Raptor Grille. Need to get a lift, armor and lockers.
    This is probably way too late but if you're in Longmont, there's a shop up near 20th and 287 called Tim's Toy Shop. He deals exclusively with Toyotas but is independent of any dealership. Pretty cool place. He saved me a shit load of money when my coils were acting up.

    Hope you got your deal situated and have been rocking a taco for the past few months.
