    Researching suspension installer/shop that you had great experience with.

    I do have a life time allignment at Firestone and was thinking about getting the front/rear suspension installed there but thought I ask you guys first.

    Thank you!

    Depends, are you going with stock or something else?

    If stock any shop could do it.
    If Icon, King, Fox.... I'd take it to TAV

    Totally Awesome Vehicle?

    I use Keith's Wheel Alignment on Arno. He's worked on my cars & trucks for many years, and is a very decent guy. Don't go there if you're gonna try to cheap out or talk smack, though, just a warning. He did the lift on my truck and it came out very well.

    TAV is Tactical Application Vehicles. Owner is Walt who has done a really great job on a number of Toyotas around town and around the South West. His vehicles have been in Outside Mag a number of times as well. From what I've seen he really knows his stuff.

    That being said I'm sure there are a number of places around town that are more than capable. Just one persons opinion of what I've seen
