Suspension shop

Does anybody know of a good suspension shop in the central valley or bay area? I want to have some new shocks and other suspension work done to my car by a reputable shop.

Re: Suspension shop

any shop decent shop should be able to do that kind of work, the thing you need is a good alignment shop for after the work is done. if you find one of those, let me know, I haven't had a proper alignment done since I stopped working at a place with the proper equipment.

Re: Suspension shop

Where are you located? Been doing suspension work for 8+ years and I do all my own work. Also do my own alignments at the shop I work at with a very nice Hunter machine. Just dialed in the IROC a few weeks ago.

Re: Suspension shop

Thats great information guys I appreciate it.. I live in the central valley in Tracy.

The shop I used before was in manteca. I think it was called mufflers and more. They did my exhaust work and put in my subframe connectors. I don't know if they work on cars, they mostly do work on trucks now.
