Autospring Installer in the Baltimore Area?

Does anyone know of a reputable shop in the Baltimore area that knows how to install an Autospring kit on my truck? Prefer someone that's done it before. I just moved here so, I don't know which shops are good and which are not....yet. Thanks.

Have you thought about doing it yourself? Since you don't need to compress the spring. I intend to do it myself, reading stuff on here helped my decision.

Here's a thread from yesterday with a bunch of info. You can do it yourself fairly easy in about 3 hours, maybe 4 depending on if you have all the tools before hand(I didn't have the 30mm socket) and how many step 22's you have

I've thought about doing it myself. However, I live in an apt complex and have a limited amount of tools. I would prefer to just have it done professionally and be done with it.

Sure, I'll take their info. Thanks. Have you or anyone you know done business with these folks?

Sorry, I didn't notice the thread back up to the top, so here is the place:

http://www.hightechautoandtruck.com/

Not sure how good they are, but they have a nice website, so they might be ok. I am sure they have installed those kits or something similar before.

Good luck

It's the place I posted, they are in Chantilly, and there isn't any other 4 wheel drive service place there, that I know of.

Customizing Connection is near the airpark in Gaithersburg, Md. That's closer than Chantilly. They've done work for me in the past. I think they are reasonable in price and workmanship. On the other hand, they've never installed a leveling kit for an 04/05 yet...

yah, but if they are experienced lift kit installers, the autospring kit will be a breeze. Now if they never did a lift kit, then they are not an off road truck service place.

A very good buddy of mine runs a shop called airport automotive near BWI airport. I've known him for almost 15 years and he has done all of the work on my truck including the 6 inch suspension lift. I will email you the number to the shop if you like.
