Shop Recommendation

I need a place that can install my springs and gimmie an alignment in the north suburbs preferably. Anyone have any recommendations? I was thinking One6 but wanted to get other options as well.

had em do a clutch job back in november. afterwards i heard clunking and looked down at the suspension, the front sway bar endlinks weren't tightened. the nuts were like about halfway threaded on the bolt. of course by this time everything was salted on and the threads were just fucked.

right now i got a temporary solution until i find the time to cut the nut off and replace the endlink.

I'll know to avoid them in the future. Why did you take your car to a performance shop for a clutch change?

If it was a stock clutch i don't see why it takes a performance shop to do the job.

Maybe it wasn't... I got my Stage 1 Clutchmaster from One6 but had my buddy George (Mike, you know Geo) install it for me.

Guys, please stay on topic here. Thanks.
