anyone know of SAS or engine swap shops in SOCAL??

does anyone know of any good shops in Socal that can do engine swaps (that actually have done it before)? or SAS, people i talk to around here seem to be oblivious to even the 3.4 swap? which seems to be really popular, let alone the supra swap... some shops have done v8 swaps but not many and they mostly work on chevy's. Downey offroad sells parts but doesnt do any install or anything. anyone know of a toy specialist for swaps and or SAS's. thanks!

Probably too far South, but Protrux does engine swaps. And they have a fabricator who has done several Axle Swaps.

www.protrux.net

WIth all the axle swap kits, it's pretty much a no brainer.

the axle swap doesnt seem too impossible however i think i want to go with 1 tons and it doesnt seem like there are kits for that.

We do solid axle swaps here in Corona. We mostly do coilover swaps. We've done 1 tons on my '05 tacoma and we're getting ready to do an FJ Cruiser and an '02 Tacoma double cab next week. Don't know what your looking for though.

Thank you. Glad you found the website. We're acually starting to do more solid axle swaps but we're focusing in on the 3 link coilovers instead of the leaf spring setup. Just like them better.
