Shops in Minnesota?

m3s_are_crisp · 12-07-2009, 08:03 AM

Anyone know of any good shops around the Twin City area? I'm looking to get some springs/shocks and need to find a place to get them installed.

Thanks

All the shops listed here are great shops ... however i'm a little biased since i own Imola, feel free to stop in and/or get a quote. If you're not happy, try the other shops, we all get a long great so definitely no harsh feelings.

You know Cory Ranschau? I worked with him at Room and Board. He's the guy who hooked me up w/ your info.

I'll have to check out the two shops above - either have a chassis dyno?

I think someone emailed me regarding having a dyno. We do NOT have a dyno. However, there are only a couple of places that I would recommend in the cities. 1. DB Performace, Rogers MN - AWD Dyno Dynamics Machine (conservative #s) and 2. APS 2WD Dynojet (i think) if its a dynojet its very Optimistic.
