Not to mention, I called to get a price on a wheel alignment and he said that depends on what mods I made. I said none, I have a 4.8is. He asked about the wheels, I said they have 20s on them. He said that may through it off a bit. I told him these are the size the truck came with. He said maybe, but they are different than what comes on the base truck. So I hung up.

So if anyone has a shop that they can suggest, I'd appreciate it. I'd prefer somewhere close to the south subs. Makes it easy to drop off and pick up.

The work I'm getting done is:
Upper control arms
CV boot
Door Carrier (may do myself)

Future work:
100k maintenance
Regular maintenance (coolants, oil, etc...)

Thanks.
I found a great indy who did a lot of work on my Dad's 4.6is with it's previous owner, tried him out with my M5 and had nothing but a great experience, definitely going back. Only thing is that he is located in Huntley, it's a drive. He's a former tech at Patrick and Motorwerks. What I liked best about him is he kept me updated throughout the whole process and made honest recommendations and what could wait and what couldn't.

Let me know if you're willing to make that trek and I'll give you his contact info.
