Richmond VA suspension work

Anyone around the RVA area have any sugestions on where to get suspension or other work done? I'm looking to get a set of 5100s installed front and back.

Edit: Sorry don't know how this ended upci the SoCal threads meant to put in the South East don't know how to change it.

 

i dont think youre gonna get much help here.

I just did mine myself. They're really not terrible to do. But if you're looking for a shop, I've heard decent things about 4 Wheel Parts on Midlothian Turnpike. I've never had any work done by them, but I did buy my ARB front bumper from them and they were great to deal with.

 

I know exactly where Ruther Glen is but it's like 100 miles away from me.

There is this thread with some members much closer that might have some suggestions.

I'll have to check that out. It's like 2 miles from my house.

 

Lol. And you didn't think you were going to find any help in the Cali section.

 

Had a few last night. Don't know how I ended up in there in the first place.

 

Are you doing any lift or just swapping out shocks?

 

I was just planning to do the shocks, but I have been looking at springs and aals.

 

And the too far south thread to the rescue way to go gents! OP you'll like the billies I have them in the front with eibach coils and they ride and handle great

 

What do you have in the back?

 

I did mine recently with the help of a buddy in about 6 hours (with a few beer breaks along the way), it's not that hard to DIY.

 

3leaf progressive all and extended travel rough country shocks. I already had the shocks when I revamped my suspension and they worked so didn't see a reason to spend the money on extended bilsteins rt now

 

Did you use a spring compressor?

 

I bought mine assembled with new springs but there are ways to do them yourself without any major bodily harm

 

I will ask you this. Are you wanting to lift your truck with this or simply upgrade your shocks?

 

I was planning to just level it out. Now I'm wondering what it would look like with a little lift. No more than 3 inches.

 

If you go 3" you'll probably want to upgrade the upper control arms as well. I don't know what you were planning on spending. My whole setup with Bilstein 5100's, SPC UCA's, 1.5" lift blocks, and coil assembly came to $1097 total - free shipping

 

If I go that route I'm gonna have to piece it together. I've been looking at some ome 885s and the eibachs

 

I got the 885's and it gave me right about 3" on DCSB Prerunner V6
