4x4 shop in long island ny?

hey guys,
i am hoping someone could recommend a shop for me. i am looking to purchase some spacers and have them installed in my 97 4runner to gain about an inch all around. oh yea, i am in nassau county but i would travel just about anywhere around the island for a good shop.
thanks,
matt

I honestly don't know of any, I've done all the work myself so far so I haven't really looked very hard for that reason. However you don't need to really go to a 4x4 shop to have spacers put in. It's a very simple process as many might chime in. Really any mechanic you like (trust) can install spacers. It only entails a small amount of labor and the cost of a new alignment.

Why only 1" though, what is it that you wish to accomplish?

i just put in a set of 265/75/16s and the tire looks dangerously close to the ft bumper. i have had some bumping when i drive up a driveway. i sort of just wanted to gain a bit more clearance.

Then get a 4Crawler body lift... 1,1.5 or 2" are available. It will take you no more than 2 hrs. The hardest part is taking a couple interior trim pieces out and voala! You have a lift! If you can find someone that has done it you could do it in an hour.
