Looking for a good 4WD shop

Hi folks, does anyone know of a good 4WD shop around the central Georgia area or south Atlanta area? I'm looking for someone who is good with suspension work and alignments on Toyota trucks. If anyone can give a referral, I'd appreciate it.

4wheel Parts is just north of Atlanta, in Buford, and there is also a place, 4x4customs, just north of Atlanta, in Snellville, that works on specifically Toyota's. Why not work on your rig yourself? I'm from Metro Atlanta and Live in Statesboro for school right now. I'd always be willing to throw in some time.

Thanks Runner, I appreciate the offer. My problem is that I don't have any place to work except the dirt. Even my driveway is just gravel. The other problem is lack of the right tools. I figured it would be cheaper to just take it to a good shop rather than try to buy everything that I would need. If you're ever through Milledgeville, feel free to stop in for a glass of lemonade and we can talk truck. Oh, thanks for the referrals.

I actually drive through milledgeville every time I travel home. I take 57 to 441 and stay on 441 until I hit 20. Thanks for the invitation, I'll be sure to make sure I get some lemonade from you sometime! And I'm sure there are good 4wd/toyota shops in Milledgeville, they have a bogging place about 15 miles or so away don't they?

Yep, they sure do, just south of town. I'll have to ask around a bit more. There's the local repair shops around here, but you know how those go. Its hard to find a good place that understands 4WD, lifts and alignment and such unless you can find a specialty shop. I haven't seen one of those around here nor Macon.
BTW, you probably pass my daughter coming down. She goes up 441 to I20 going to school in Atlanta.

Small world! She must love Atlanta being from Milledgeville. Yea, I would ask around though. My older sister used to go to GCSU and her boyfriend lives in Milledgeville. I'll ask him if he knows of anything or anyone who might know for you.
