    I’m looking to install new shocks either some bilstein 6112 or eibach stage 2s.

    can anyone recommend a good shop in SoCal? I was planning on shock surplus but changed my mind after seeing their reviews.

    The Truck Shop in Miramar pretty much only deals with Toyotas but I bet you could find someone here willing to install them in their / your driveway for a bit less. Like that superdave guy

    @Superdave1.0 for sure he’s a legit professional mechanic as his day job not some random backyard diy guy he’s way more meticulous than any shop hands down. Keep in mind shops don’t really give a fuck about your rig and just turn and burn to make money Dave actually loses money with his rates and how much time and effort he puts into your rig dude genuinely enjoys wrenching
