Recommend for San Francisco Bay Area suspension/lift shop ?
Complete newbie to Yotatech (well to posting anyway) so apologies if this is in the wrong forum: after checking out postings here I'm about to buy a Sonoran Steel 7.2 suspension lift kit for my '98 4Runner (4WD, 3.4, Manual) - does anyone have any recommendations for a shop in/around NorCal / The Bay Area to do the fitting ? I'm looking for somewhere that's really going to know their stuff (and actually care about more than just turning the job around as quickly as they can).
Thanks.
Thanks.

I'm in oakland, I think the closest suspension/lift minded shops are down in the San Jose area.
As I understand it, the lifts from SS aren't very complicated to install, i.e. if you have the necessary tools, space, etc. Just need to have a local shop setup the front shock/spring and you can even have Steve do that for you before he ships it.
My mechanic in Oakland is a stand up guy, does good work and is very honest. Glen Poy-Wing, Owner, Oakland Auto Works, (510) 597-8388.

Thanks. I have basically no tools or space - least not for this kind of thing. Steve mentioned he could setup the front shock/spring. If that was done is this something that you'd be confident letting Glen at Oakland Auto handle ? Otherwise I have some mates down near Gilroy I might take it to.
...I think the fact that my lastname is Todd may have confused the guy from Illinois. I haven't got a clue what he's on about...
