Hi all,

I'm looking for a place that can do some minor work on my tow vehicle. I have purchased a rear swaybar and a set of Bilstein shocks for it. Basically the Bilstein install on the front was such a hateful job that I don't want to do the rear stuff.

Anyone recommend a good place? I kinda figured the dealer wouldn't install shocks I brought with me, though I could be wrong.

Crossroads ford will install custom parts for you, but I doubt they will gaurantee the parts or labor and you'll pay out for it. Can't say much about other shops...never owned a ford.

I used the Tire King on Airport Road for years before I moved. The manager, John, always treated me right (i.e. didn't jerk me around). Among other things, they installed the air-shocks on my truck, mounted many a tire (race and street) and even would allign the race car (yes, the yellow one) for me. They also have a shuttle to get you to work after you drop it off in the AM. In the [probably] 6 years I took stuff to them, I never had a complaint. :)
